Medical Clearance to Participate in Marching Band!
​
Did you know that participating in marching band all four years at Rancho Mirage High School covers your total PE requirement? That's right! You do not have to take PE if you are in marching band. Why? Marching band is a physical school activity. Because of this (and added COVID-19 precautions), medical clearance is now required.
Click on the link below to access the medical clearance form. All you have to do is take the form to an urgent care or your primary care doctor and request a physical for school. The doctor checks you out to make sure you're safe to participate, signs off on the form and you bring it back to the band director! It's that easy.
Clinics are also hosted at the high school for a nominal fee. Stay tuned for those dates!
​
It is mandatory that this clearance be submitted. No clearance? No marching band. Download the form now!
