Dear Parents/Guardians:

At this point in time athletic participation has been postponed until January 4, 2021, as per directive from the Superintendents Board of Section VIII Athletics.

Although we all understand that athletics is an integral part of your child’s education, we have been mandated to delay sports participation.

When athletic participation begins, it should be noted that Manhasset offers many athletic activities in which your child can attempt to participate. In almost all cases students try out for the sport of their choice but there may be eliminations based mostly on levels of skill.

We have Middle School sports and High School sports, and it is strongly encouraged that your child participate at their level of competition. Although any 7-12 student may try out for a high school sport, the process for a student who is in 7^th or 8^th grade to “play-up” is called the Athletic Placement Policy. This policy is governed by the New York State Education Department. Please see "Useful Docs/Info" on the right for further information on this policy.

Continuing again this year is Family ID, online athletic registration for all athletic sports and sports seasons (www.familyid.com). Paper registration will no longer be accepted.

We will continue to update you with information throughout the school year in anticipation of sports beginning. If you have any questions, please call the Athletic Office at 516-267-7555.
