Santa Rosa Academy offers a Sports Physical day in May each year when a doctor does the physicals on campus for the following year. Check the sports calendar for the specific date and time.

Q: What if I can’t pick my student up at the early dismissal time for a game?

A: Your coach or the athletic department has a form that you can fill out to give another parent permission to sign your student out early for a game. The early dismissals are not necessarily mandatory. You can choose to wait until the regular dismissal time if you think you can still get your student to the game on time. The athletic department offers the early dismissal as a convenience to you.

Q: Why do some teams need parent volunteers while other teams do not seem to need them?

Q: What is the protocol if I or my athlete has a complaint or issue?

A: The protocol for any of our sports is for the athlete to talk first to his/her coach about the issue. If the athlete does not feel that a resolution has been reached, he/she needs to make an appointment to talk to the athletic director. If this does not resolve the problem, only then should the parent make an appointment to talk first to the coach, then to the athletic director. Only as a last resort should the parent need to make an appointment to address the issue with the principal. Our goal is to come to a satisfactory resolution before it gets to that point.

Q: Is my child required to have medical insurance to play sports at Santa Rosa Academy?
