An information session for Rising Freshmen will be held April 30th at 6:00 PM in the AC Flora Theatre. Parents and students may attend to hear about the transition to high school. In addition, letters will be sent home prior to the meeting so that parents can be provided information regarding schedules for the 2018-19 school year.

Sports Pre-participation Athletic Forms

The Athletic Department at Crayton Middle School now hosts their Pre-participation Athletic Forms online with ArbiterAthlete, powered by PlanetHS, a software company committed to keeping your student(s) safe. This digital platform will allow you, and your student(s), to complete and access athletic forms via computer, tablet, or mobile phone. It is HIPPA, COPPA and FERPA compliant.

Athletes cannot participate in sports until digital forms are complete, unless otherwise specified by your school. Forms will be valid for the entire school year for which they are filled out, with the exception of the physical exam provided by your physician which will reflect the policy set in place by your athletic department.
