For the safety of our students, parents who provide student athletes with transportation to away games must complete Child Abuse and Neglect Compliance Training- see details here.  

ATHLETICS OVERVIEW - 2025-2026

Athletic Registration is done online in ParentVUE - before tryouts. View this 2.5 minute video explaining the process.

ATHLETICS REGISTRATION & FORMS

Registration for 7th and 8th grade students for middle school athletics are submitted through the ParentVue Portal. Students should complete their pre-participation physical (MCPS Form SR-8) so that the medical eligibility form (last page of SR-8) is ready for online submission via the ParentVue Portal or for email submission to the school athletic coordinator, prior to tryouts/practices. This form must be completed and/or on file before a student-athlete can participate.
 

All athletic practices and games will take place on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Activity buses are available for students participating in Extracurricular Activities.
