Attention Parents and 5th -8th Grade Athletes Middle School Fall Sports Meetings will be held on the first day of school, September 7. All students interested in participating should attend the meeting which will be held during school hours. Fall sports practices will begin on September 8th or 9th. All Middle School students who are interested in playing fall sports will need to complete the following paperwork before they can participate: Student Pledge, Athletic and Activity Agreement, Consent for Medical/Emergency Treatment, Annual Interval History Form, and then a completed Sports Physical. All of this paperwork can be found on-line in the ASD Athletic Handbook or can be picked up at the Arlington High School office.
