IMPORTANT INFO.

Parents and athletes, please see message below from the athletic department.

If you have not done so already, please be sure your athlete is registered for a Fall sport in Genesis. A parent must sign in to their account and forms can be found in the forms tab under Fall Sports Forms 2025-26.

Please see the Montclair High School Athletics website under medical forms to print forms. Medical forms will continue to be accepted, but we need 3 weeks to process them for clearance. Updated action plans for asthma, life threatening illness, diabetes, etc. must be on file for the new school year in order for clearance to be granted.

ImPACT testing- If you or your child need a baseline ImPACT test, you may reach out to the RWJ/ Barnabas Health Matthew J Morahan Center for Athletes. This is the only acceptable outside location. There will be a fee assessed at the time of the testing. Let them know that you are a Montclair High School athlete so that they can move it to our database. Please let me know when it is completed. I will need to check the results before entering it into Genesis.

That athletic trainers will also be available for in person baseline testing once they return for Fall preseason sessions on 8/11/25. This will be by appointment only.
