Athletic Physicals       
From The Central Office
The Byron Community School District will be providing an opportunity for students in the Middle School (grades 6, 7 and 8) and High School (grades 10, 11 and 12) to obtain their athletic physical.  An athletic physical is required to participate in competitive sports, cheerleading and dance team.  The date for the physical is Tuesday August 3, 2010.

 We are please to coordinate this program with the current provider of our athletic training services, Ogle County Physical Therapy.  They will have 2  female and two male doctors in attendance at the physicals, with additional adequate staffing to keep the process moving quickly.  They will provide many services young people beyond the $35 fee that is charged for the physical exam.  If payment is by check, Please make the check payable to OGLE COUNTY PHYSICAL THERAPY .  The participating athlete should wear loose fitting, comfortable clothing.

 Most medical insurance and HMO's will probably not cover this physical, but it is recommended that you check with your provider prior to the date.

 Please be aware that this exam  CANNOT be used in place of the 9th grade exam required by the State of Illinois.
