Dear Aristoi Parents,
Aristoi Classical Academy Athletics Participation Requirements
Effective August 1, 2022
- Athletic Participation Forms must be submitted annually before a student participates in any school tryout, practice, athletic class, open gym, athletic competition, or travels with an athletic team for any purpose.
- For the health and well-being of students, Aristoi Classical is requiring that all athletes in grades 5th-12th participating in organized school-sponsored sports have a new Pre-Participation Physical Examination (PPE), also known as a “sports physical”, given prior to the start of each school calendar year.
- A Pre-Participation Examination (PPE) differs from a “well-child” exam in that the focus is to “clear” the participant for a specific activity. A PPE may be scheduled at the same as a well-child visit. A PPE can help find health problems that could stop your child from competing safely.
- To streamline the process, parents are encouraged to fill out the Medical History portion of the form prior to arriving at the students’ appointment or school-sponsored PPE event.
- Aristoi Booster Club is sponsoring on-site PPE/Sports Physicals provided by Memorial Hermann Sports Medicine and UT Physicians in the Griffin Center on Tuesday, July 26th from 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM for $25 each. Look for communication from Aristoi and ABC with additional details and instructions on how to RSVP.
-
If you choose not to participate in the ABC-sponsored PPE sports physicals on July 26th, you can obtain one from your students’ pediatrician, local urgent care facility, or participating community clinic. Student-athletes are still required to use the PPE form provided.
For questions or concerns, please contact me, Aristoi Classical Academy Athletic Director, Terry Boling.
Sincerely,
Terry Boling
Athletic Director, Upper School
