Pre-Participation Physical

All students who will be participating in High School Band during the 2015-2016 school year are required by the district to have a Pre-Participation Physical which must be dated after April 1, 2015.  These Physical Forms  are due the first day of Summer Band (July 29 for freshmen; July 31 for all other classes).  Forms are available for pickup in the band office and available for download online by clicking here.  IMPORTANT:  Make sure you have the correct form by checking that “REVISED 12-4-14” is in the upper right-hand corner of page 3.  This is the Medical History page.

This physical can be performed at your family doctor, however a doctor will be available at Clear Springs on Thursday, April 23rd from 2:30 to 5:00 for your convenience.  This will be in the Clear Springs High School Competition Gym.  The cost will be $25 dollars; cash is preferred or checks may be made payable to Dr. John Kirkwood.  Please note that Wind Ensemble members will not be able to take advantage of this as they will be at UIL Contest; instead, they will either need to get the physical at their family doctor or go to Clear Creek High School on April 22 between 2-6.

These physicals are due the first day of Summer Band, but can and should be turned in to the band office if completed before the end of the school year.  Do not let the trainer keep the form.  Wait for the doctor’s signature and take the form with you when you are done.  You can then turn the form in the next day to Mr. Brown or Mr. Williams.

BE SURE THAT BOTH PARENT AND STUDENT SIGN THE BOTTOM OF PAGES 1, 2, AND 3!  FORMS WITHOUT SIGNATURES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Important:

• If you will be participating in both band and athletics you will need one copy of your physical form on file in the band office and one copy of your physical form on file with the athletic trainer.
• It is the students responsibility to make sure a copy of the physical form is made and that one is given to the band directors and one to the athletic trainer.
