• New legislation will be in effect by August, 2012 covering all students (not just athletes) who sustain a concussion while participating in any activity.
     
    The district has a policy that addresses any student that sustains a concussion on or off school grounds.  All concussions must be reported to the health office.  Students must submit a doctors note with the  diagnosis and any restrictions or accommodations.  PE, sports coaches and Deans are notified of the injury.  Once the student submits a doctors note that states he/she is cleared to return to full activity, the "Return to Play Progression" is started by the PE teacher or coach.  This is a gradual return to activity as dictated by the district policy.
