Germantown Hills School District #69

Just a reminder all sports concussion forms and sports fees ($25 per season) must be turned into the coach before the first game or your child will not be able to participate in the game. All students participating in a summer/ fall sport (Softball, Baseball, and CC) should have an updated physical turned into their coach.
