COMPLETE STEPS ‘A’ AND ‘B’ TO COMPLETE THE REGISTRATION PROCESS

AND
B. The NJ Department of Education Health History Update form is required for all seasons. It must be uploaded into your Family ID registration.
The state modified this form in 2020 to include COVID-19 screening information. As a result, it is required from all student-athletes regardless of the physical exam date on file.

*** The following is also needed, in order to be eligible for a sport. ***
(This may or may not apply to your athlete):
1. Impact baseline tests must be submitted by every incoming freshman and transfer students. The baseline test is valid for two years. The majority of students will complete a baseline test in their 9th and 11th grade years. Impact baseline tests will not be accepted from other school's databases. This includes baseline tests done at the Florence M Guadineer middle school.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
- How can I find out if my current physical is on file?
-
Physical status can be determined by contacting the Coach for your sports program, Nurse Graham at rgraham@springfieldschools.com, Athletic Trainer Brianne Triano at btriano@springfieldschools.com, or our Athletics Secretary Matthew Bove at mbove@springfieldschools.com.
-
- Why can’t I practice if I submit my physical on the first day of sports?
- All submitted physicals are sent to the school physician for review as per district policy. This process typically takes 1-3 days from the day that the district receives a new physical. To avoid disappointment all students are encouraged to submit physicals at least 7 days prior to the start of a sports season.
- The school physician is based out of the Care Station Medical practice located at 90 US-22, Springfield, NJ 07081. Physicals completed at this location do not need to be reviewed and will be processed immediately upon submission to the school.
- Why am I getting an email from Family ID asking for a “signature correction?”
- There are sections of the Family ID registration that require separate “student” and “parent” signatures. If a parent signs their name as the student or vice versa, the registration will not be accepted.
- Please be mindful of signature fields when registering. Follow the notification email instructions to correct an invalid signature admission. There is no need to start a whole new sports registration.
- I emailed my paperwork to Nurse Graham / Ms. Triano, why am I not cleared yet?
- Digital submissions of paperwork will only be accepted when forms have been uploaded to your student’s Family ID registration.
- Families must upload well-lit and clearly legible images of their forms.
- Information on how to upload physical/ history update forms to your completed registration can be found at the link below.
