RPMS Athletics Newsletter

Hello, Rockets!

I hope you had a great weekend! Spring sports are now starting to begin. To reiterate last week's message, I encourage each of you to actively seek out opportunities to engage in athletics and develop your skills, whether you’re moving on to your next sport or trying something new!

Marking period three ends this Friday, March 21st. As always, I encourage you to strive for excellence by competing in the classroom and on the playing surface. Continue to monitor communication from the coaching staff, and feel free to reach out to the main office or your coaches with any questions. Have a great week and GO ROCKETS! 🚀

Sincerely,

Mr. Jordan Riley

Parents and student-athletes, a grade report will be collected and submitted to the coaching staff on Friday morning for any in-season student-athlete who is under a C- in any class. Students must be passing a minimum of five academic classes in the current marking period. Academic progress will be monitored by the Athletic Director, please ensure that you are competing in the classroom and on the playing surface.

Per MHSAA policies, a physical examination must be completed on or after April 15, 2024 to be considered a valid physical for the 2024-2025 school year.

Please note that your student’s annual physical/medical history form (all pages) will need to be uploaded to Final Forms. For 6th-grade families, sports physicals SHOULD NOT be delivered to the Intermediate building.

RPMS Athletics partners with FinalForms, an online service that allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students. FinalForms saves data from season to season and year to year, meaning you will never need to enter the same information twice!

We are asking that ALL parents of athletes use FinalForms. Please make sure you’re signed up to receive preseason, tryout, and practice information.

No Final Forms = Ineligible to Participate. 👎

All Green = ALL GOOD! ✅
