Why physicals are important.
Physicals can play a big role in your child’s success by:
- Assessing their ability to participate in school activities and athletic events
- Shedding light on any conditions or concerns that might impact their academic progress
In Pennsylvania, all public schools require that students have a minimum of three physicals throughout their school career–upon original entry, grade 6, and grade 11. Check with your child’s school for specific requirements.
Prior to any student participating in Practices, Inter-School Practices, Scrimmages, and/or Contests, at any PIAA member school, a student is required to complete a Comprehensive Initial Pre-Participation Physical Evaluation (CIPPE).
