Health Screening and Pre-Participation Physical (PPE) on November 6, 2008

The Fairfax High School and The Oakton High School Athletic Training Programs are offering an opportunity for students to receive a sports health screening and pre-participation physical (PPE) on Thursday, November 6, 2008 from 6-8 pm. Our team physicians from Fairfax Family Medicine, as well as a staff of nurses, physical therapists and certified athletic trainers will be on hand to provide a thorough screening including a postural exam, joint flexibility, body fat evaluation, and information regarding what each of those assessments mean. If during the screening or physical, the physicians find something that is questionable to them regarding your child’s health, they may request further evaluation by another physician. We are asking for a minimum donation of $50 for those who pre-register and $60 for walk-ins in exchange for the PPE. To Pre register go to the following internet web site: http://www.fcps.edu/supt/activities/atp/ppeoverview.htm . Upon registering you will receive an email confirming your pre-registration. We follow a first come first serve system. If you have any questions please call Paul Rupp, Athletic Trainer at 703/319-2833.

These physicals and screenings are a method of raising funds for the Athletic Training Programs at Oakton and Fairfax High Schools which benefits every student athlete.

If you have any question please contact Paul Rupp, Oakton HS Athletic Trainer at 703-319-2833 or prupp@fcps.edu. Or you can contact Brett Gustman Fairfax HS Athletic Trainer at 703-219-2241 or Brett.Gustman@fcps.edu.
