    Upcoming 6th - 12th Grade Parents:

    Athletic physicals will be given in the gym on Friday, April 26 at approximately 10:00/10:30 am. Students who will participate in junior varsity or high school varsity athletics during the 2024-25 school year are required to have a physical on file AND be registered on-line before they can practice. (see below) These physicals are free and at no charge to the parents. You may choose to use your personal physician at your expense, but again; your athlete will need a current physical on file AND be registered before they are allowed to practice. Students who wear contacts and/or glasses need to wear those on this day. I have attached Ochsner's Physical Form, but we will also send a hard copy home with students on Monday to ensure they are returned promptly. The athlete's top portion needs to be completed before they return the form. Please have them return the form to me ASAP.

    To Register / On-Line Enrollment:

    Log into your FACTS portal > Apply/Enroll OR via the Sylva-Bay Academy App>Enroll. The packet must be SUBMITTED AND the $211 Pre-Registration Fee must be PAID on-line to be considered registered.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thank you,

    Hope Hull
