Athletic Department Important Parent Information 

We are very excited to announce that South Western City Schools has partnered with Final Forms, an online forms and data management service. Final Forms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students. The most exciting news is that Final Forms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning that you will never need to enter the same information twice! Final Forms also pre-populates information wherever possible, for each of your students, saving you time. You may review your data at any time to verify it is current. You will be required to sign your forms once per year and after any updates are made. Click here Parent Registration to get started in Parent registration Final Forms. If you require any support during the process, scroll to the page bottom and click “Get Help”. Thank you for your assistance in streamlining our paperwork processes at Norton Middle School. Go Wildcats! 

 Please register & create your account here  https://southwesterncity-oh.finalforms.com/ and electronically complete all the forms. 

For students to participate in any formal activities - tryouts, practices, and games - they must have an up to date physical on file with the office. This information can be turned in to coaches, brought to the main office, or uploaded into final forms. Please make sure you submit all pages. You can print a copy of the form from this site - https://www.ohsaa.org/medicine/physicalexamform

Important Dates

Does your child plan to play sports or participate in the marching band?  There is scholarship money made available through the Success Beyond the Classroom Foundation (SBC) to assist in covering the Pay-to-Participate cost. SBC is a non-profit organization that raises funds to provide scholarships to qualified students in the district who wish to participate in athletics and/or their school marching band.  SBC members believe that extra-curricular activities help students learn and practice the skills needed for success in all areas of life.  To be considered for an SBC scholarship, students must submit and fully complete an application, which is available on the district and school websites. Administrators, Athletic Directors, and/or coaches at each building can help you locate the SBC application. Applications can also be found on the building and district websites.  For more information and deadline dates please visit  http://athletics.swcsd.us/SBC  or you may contact the school Athletic Director.
