Registration is now open for all incoming 9th-12th grade students in the 2024-25 school year who will be participating in a fall sport.
If your child is a returning athlete for Northern Burlington, please sign into your account using your username and password. Please DO NOT create a new account.
If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact Michele O’Neill in the Athletic Office at moneill@nburlington.com or 609-298-3900, ext. 2093.
For those students entering 8th grade next year, those sports are not yet open for registration due to the later start time. Middle school sports will open later this spring.
As Northern processes the recent updates regarding Sports Clearance from the NJDOE that is to be implemented July 1st, we request that parents/guardians continue to submit to the school: the Parent History, the Physical form, and the new Medical Eligibility form from their student's physician to the school nurse as has been previously done. Thank you
Student IDs
Please remind your student School IDs are to be worn around their neck all day every day. If misplaced they may purchase a new one in the Counseling office for $5.
Chromebooks for Next Year
Class of 2029 (Current Seventh Graders): Students returning for eighth grade will keep their Chromebook over the summer and use it again in eighth grade. Class of 2028 (Current Eighth Graders): Students will have their Chromebooks and chargers collected on June 12 and 13 during PE classes. At that time they will receive their new Chromebook and charger for high school. In order to receive a new Chromebook, the Chromebook and charger turned in must be in good working condition. In the event there are damages to the Chromebook that must be repaired, a new Chromebook will not be issued until that financial obligation is paid in full. A fee of $35 will be assessed for chargers not returned. For students leaving the district, regardless of grade, the Chromebook and charger issued must be returned to the school as part of the regular sign out process.
