Impact Testing-
Any student participating in a fall sport needs to take the Impact test on the computer. Some students took it last year in computer class so do not need to take it again. Most students that have not taken it are in 7th, 11th and 12th grades.
The school will be open all day Monday for students to take it, just come into the high school office, this takes about 30 minutes to complete. This test is to get a baseline in case a concussion we’re to happen.
