NMAA Message on a fan Behavior Directed at Officials
Attention all Student/Athletes
DON'T WAIT FOR YOUR SPORT SEASON TO START! GET YOUR PHYSICAL AND CONCUSSION PROTOCOLS COMPLETED ASAP!
New athletic regulations require that all players complete a course on concussions in order to participate in school sports. This course can be completed online at no cost. The course is located on the following website.
KMS will have computers available for all athletes during Monday and Wednesday tutoring to use in order to complete their concussion course. Athletes must turn in a printed copy of the certificate they earn upon completing the course.
There will also be an updated NMAA Concussion Fact sheet for both athletes and their parents to sign. These will be sent home with the students after they complete the concussion course.
Thank you for supporting our sports programs.
Parents: You may have your Athletes take the course at home but there are two cautions:
1. You will have to register at the site using the student's school issued gmail account (the account needs to be in the student's name otherwise the student's name does not appear on the certificate). Please remember the password you use for your registration so we can have the students print them at school. If your athlete needs their gmail account, have them ask their English teachers or Ms. Mikelle Hunt.
2. Once you have registered, make sure you order the Concussion-for-students course (there are other concussion courses so please make sure you select the correct one). It is free but it will ask you to "purchase" the course. They then give you a zero cost invoice for the course. Then go to the dashboard and click on my courses. You will see the course there to start the course.
