Student Physicals

All athletes and students in grades 7 and 10 are required to have physical examinations before the start of school and the beginning of their sports seasons. To satisfy these requirements, the Sag Harbor School District has announced two dates for free physical exams: tomorrow and Friday, Aug. 21, between 3 and 5 p.m. in the Pierson nurse’s office.

Parents can choose to have their children’s family doctors complete their physical exams, but those health care professionals must fill out a corresponding school form. The athletic department says on its website that other forms will not be accepted.

Students wishing to play sports must also submit a student-athlete contract, to be filled out and signed by parents. More information can be found on the district’s athletics webpage, sagharborschools.org/athletics.cfm, or by calling the department at 725-5302, extension 450 or 451.
