2024 Senior Athlete of the Year

Kennedy High School students have 24 athletic teams to choose from. It’s a great day to be a Cougar!

Permission to practice

Before students can begin participating with a Kennedy High School athletic team, they must first obtain permission to practice. Permission to practice is approved once the following are completed:

  • Student-athlete has a current physical on file completed within the last 12 calendar months.  Physicals are valid for 12 months from the date of the last exam.  There is a 30 day grace period to complete and submit the next physical.
  • Student and parent/guardian read and sign off on the CRCSD Good Conduct and Eligibility Policies
  • Student and parent/guardian sign off on the Heads Up: Concussion form required by the Iowa DOE, the IHSAA, and the IGHSAU

Complete the permission to practice process by submitting an online activities registration form annually for each of your Kennedy student-athletes.

It is recommended that you complete the process at least one week prior to the beginning of your first sport of the year.  This will ensure your student is cleared before the start of practice.
