Freshman Checklist:

  1. Complete a school physical and current immunization record, signed and stamped by a physician's office, and email it to freshmanforms@ignatius.edu by 8/7/26.
     
  2. If your son has health concerns that will require special attention from the school nurse, such as requiring medication at school, self-carry epi pens or asthma inhalers, emergency plans for seizures, severe allergies, or asthma and diabetes management plans, there are additional forms that will need to be completed by a healthcare professional and returned to the school along with the physical. These forms can be found here.
     
  3. If your son is planning on participating in any school sports or weight room training, you must also complete the OHSAA Sports Physical Form, signed and stamped by a physician’s office, and return it before practice for that sport begins. Students will not be able to participate in school sports without an up-to-date OHSAA Sports Physical Form on file. The forms will also be available on FinalForms. Completed forms may be dropped off in the Athletic Department or scanned and uploaded to FinalForms.
     
  4. Review the Class of 2030 Summer Shopping List to adequately prepare for the 2026-2027 school year.
     
  5. Complete your FinalForms activation prior to Freshman Orientation on 8/20/26. All incoming families received their FinalForms login information via email in May. Learn more about FinalForms.
     
  6. Download the Remind mobile app.
