Students attending Phifer Middle School and Pennsauken High School who plan on participating in sports during the school year are required to have an annual physical. The Pennsauken School District will be offering free physicals to these students on Monday, Aug. 6, from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m., at the nurse’s office at Pennsauken High School, 800 Hylton Rd.

Even if you don’t know if you will participate in a sport, we recommend getting one so you don’t have to worry if you make a last minute decision to go out for a team.

Forms that need to completed prior to these physicals are available at Pennsauken High School’s athletic office or can be downloaded at Pennsauken.net. It is highly recommended that people show up early to ensure that all parent sections of the paperwork are filled out correctly.
