INSURANCE INFORMATION FORM
Dear Parent/Guardian,
The Board of Education has purchased insurance coverage to protect all participants in interscholastic sports/extracurricular activities in case of an accidental injury resulting from such participation. This coverage also applies to equipment managers, band members, cheerleaders, flag wavers, and any other approved participants.
The insurance is excess coverage; i.e., it will pay those expenses not covered (including deductibles) by any other medical insurance you may have. Thus, you must submit all bills to your own insurance first. The school policy will pick up the unpaid balances up to the limits of the policy. Contact the athletic trainer (732-705-5307), if you have any questions regarding injuries or insurance coverage.
Although this coverage is very broad, there are restrictions, limitations, and exclusions in this policy. IN MANY SITUATIONS, MEDICAL BILLS MAY NOT BE COVERED IN FULL. Parents should understand that medical expenses are their own responsibility, not the Board of Education’s.
All injuries should be immediately reported to the coach or faculty advisor and trainer. Claim forms will be provided by the school, but it is the parents’ responsibility to:
1. Submit the claim form with Part II filled out COMPLETELY. (Any omissions will delay the processing of the claim.)
1. Submit all itemized bills. (Monthly statements will not be accepted.)
1. Submit the statement received from your own insurance company showing amounts paid and balances due, or a letter of denial stating the claim is not covered. One of these letters is required for any payments to be made.
1. If you have no other medical insurance, you will receive a letter from the company to sign and have notarized. Return this to the company immediately and the claim will be considered for payment. Failure to return this letter will result in a delay or denial of the claim.
It is your responsibility, and to your benefit, to submit the necessary papers as soon as possible as the claim cannot be considered until all papers are submitted. ONLY ONE CLAIM FORM PER ACCIDENT IS REQUIRED.
All claim forms, bills and letters from other insurance companies are to be forwarded to, and questions regarding the coverage, answered by:

NJSIAA STERIOD TESTING POLICY
CONSENT TO RANDOM TESTING
In Executive Order 72, issued December 20, 2005, Governor Richard Codey directed the New Jersey Department of Education to work in conjunction with the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) to develop and implement a program of random testing for steroids, of teams and individuals qualifying for championship games.
Beginning in the Fall, 2006 sports season, any student-athlete who possesses, distributes, ingests or otherwise uses any of the banned substances on the attached page, without written prescription by a fully-licensed physician, as recognized by the American Medical Association, to treat a medical condition, violates the NJSIAA’s sportsmanship rule, and is subject to NJSIAA penalties, including ineligibility from competition. The NJSIAA will test certain randomly selected individuals and teams that qualify for a state championship tournament or state championship competition for banned substances. The results of all tests shall be considered confidential and shall only be disclosed to the student, his or her parents and his or her school. No student may participate in NJSIAA competition unless the student and the student’s parent/guardian consent to random testing.
By signing below, we consent to random testing in accordance with the NJSIAA steroid testing policy. We understand that, if the student or the student’s team qualifies for a state championship tournament or state championship competition, the student may be subject to testing for banned substances.

NJSIAA Banned-Drug Classes
2007 - 2008
The term “related compounds” comprises substances that are included in the class by their pharmacological action and/or chemical structure. No substance belonging to the prohibited class may be used, regardless of whether it is specifically listed as an example.
Many nutritional/dietary supplements contain NJSIAA banned substances. In addition, the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not strictly regulate the supplement industry; therefore purity and safety of nutritional dietary supplements cannot be guaranteed. Impure supplements may lead to a positive NJSIAA drug test. The use of supplements is at the student-athlete’s own risk. Student-athletes should contact their physician or athletic trainer for further information.
The following is a list of banned-drug classes, with examples of banned substances under each class:
(a) Stimulants (b) Anabolic Agents (c) Diuretics (d) Peptide Hormones & Analogues:
amiphenazole anabolic steroids acetazolamide corticotrophin (ACTH)
amphetamine androstenediol bendroflumethiazide human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG)
bemigride androstenedione benzhiazide leutenizing hormone (LH)
benzphetamine boldenone bumetanide growth hormone (HGH, somatotrophin)
bromantan clostebol chlorothiazide insulin like growth hormone (IGF-1)
caffeine1 (guorana) dehydrochlormethyl- chlorthalidone
chlorphentermine testosterone ethacrynic acid All the respective releasing factors
cocaine dehydroepiandro- flumethiazide of the above-mentioned substances
cropropamide sterone (DHEA) furosemide also are banned:
crothetamide dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hydrochlorothiazide erythropoietin (EPO)
diethylpropion dromostanolone hydroflumenthiazide darbypoetin
dimethylamphetamine epitrenbolone methyclothiazide sermorelin
doxapram fluoxymesterone metolazone
ephedrine gestrinone polythiazide
(ephedra, ma huang) mesterolone quinethazone
ethamivan methandienone spironolactone
ethylamphetamine methenolone triamterene
fencamfamine trichlormethiazide
meclofenoxate and related compounds
methamphetamine methyltestosterone
methylenedioxymethamphetamine nandrolone
(MDMA, ecstasy) norandrostenediol
methylphenidate norandrostenedione
nikethamide norethandrolone (e) Definitions of positive depends on the following:
pemoline oxandrolone 1 for caffeine – if the concentration in urine exceeds 15 micrograms/ml
pentetrazol oxymesterone
phendimetrazine oxymetholone 2 for testosterone – if administration of testosterone or use of any other
phenmetrazine pregnelone manipulation has the result of increasing the ratio of the total
phentermine stanozolol concentration of testosterone to that of epitestosterone in the urine
phenylpropanolamine (ppa) testosterone2 of greater than 6:1, unless there is evidence that this ratio is due to a
picrotoxine tetrahydrogestrinone physiological or pathological condition.
pipradol (THG)
prolintane trenbolone
strychnine and related compounds
synephrine other anabolic agents
(citrus aurantium, zhi shi, bitter clenbuterol

NJSIAA PARENT/GUARDIAN
CONCUSSION POLICY ACKNOWLEDGMENT FORM
In order to help protect the student athletes of New Jersey, the NJSIAA has mandated that all
athletes, parents/guardians and coaches follow the NJSIAA Concussion Policy.
A concussion is a brain injury and all brain injuries are serious. They may be caused by a bump, blow,
or jolt to the head, or by a blow to another part of the body with the force transmitted to the head.
They can range from mild to severe and can disrupt the way the brain normally works. Even though
most concussions are mild, all concussions are potentially serious and may result in
complications including prolonged brain damage and death if not recognized and managed
properly. In other words, even a “ding” or a bump on the head can be serious. You can’t see a
concussion and most sports concussions occur without loss of consciousness. Signs and symptoms
of concussion may show up right after the injury or can take hours or days to fully appear. If your
child/player reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms or signs of
concussion yourself, seek medical attention right away.
Symptoms may include one or more of the following:
1. Headache.
2. Nausea/vomiting.
3. Balance problems or dizziness.
4. Double vision or changes in vision.
5. Sensitivity to light or sound/noise.
6. Feeling of sluggishness or fogginess.
7. Difficulty with concentration, short-term memory, and/or confusion.
8. Irritability or agitation.
9. Depression or anxiety.
10. Sleep disturbance.
Signs observed by teammates, parents and coaches include:
1. Appears dazed, stunned, or disoriented.
2. Forgets plays or demonstrates short-term memory difficulties (e.g. is unsure of the
game, score, or opponent)
3. Exhibits difficulties with balance or coordination.
4. Answers questions slowly or inaccurately.
5. Loses consciousness.
6. Demonstrates behavior or personality changes.
7. Is unable to recall events prior to or after the hit

What can happen if my child/player keeps on playing with a concussion or returns too soon?
Athletes with the signs and symptoms of concussion should be removed from play immediately.
Continuing to play with the signs and symptoms of a concussion leaves the young athlete especially
vulnerable to greater injury. There is an increased risk of significant damage from a concussion for a
period of time after that concussion occurs, particularly if the athlete suffers another concussion
before completely recovering from the first one. This can lead to prolonged recovery, or even to
severe brain swelling (second impact syndrome) with devastating and even fatal consequences. It is
well known that adolescent or teenage athletes will often under report symptoms of injuries. And
concussions are no different. As a result, education of administrators, coaches, parents and students
is the key for student-athlete’s safety.
If you think your child/player has suffered a concussion
Any athlete even suspected of suffering a concussion should be removed from the game or practice
immediately. No athlete may return to activity after an apparent head injury or concussion, regardless
of how mild it seems or how quickly symptoms clear. Close observation of the athlete should continue
for several hours.
An athlete who is suspected of sustaining a concussion or head injury in a practice or game shall be
removed from competition at that time and may not return to play until the athlete is evaluated by a
medical doctor or doctor of Osteopathy, trained in the evaluation and management of concussion and
received written clearance to return to play from that health care provider.
You should also inform you child’s Coach, Athletic Trainer (ATC), and/or Athletic Director, if you think
that your child/player may have a concussion. And when it doubt, the athlete sits out.
