*NOTE

The presence of an IEP, 504 or private evaluation does not automatically guarantee accommodations. Iona Prep will carefully review all relevant information to determine if the learning disability or medical condition has a significant impact on a student’s learning and performance. If a determination is made to support accommodations, the school counselor will share that information with the student, his parents and teachers via an Iona Prep Accommodation Plan.

Please note that decisions regarding accommodations for college entrance exam testing and AP exam testing are not made by Iona Prep. The College Board and ACT make their own decisions regarding testing accommodations and have a rigorous process that demands updated testing (psychological, academic, medical, etc.). The school counselor will assist parents and students in attempting to secure testing accommodations from these companies.

ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT PHILOSOPHY

The Iona Preparatory School Athletic Program serves the purpose of supplying important cocurricular activities to students. Athletic competition and participation provide students with a sense of belonging and resilience. Participants enjoy the physical, mental and emotional expression that accompanies athletic participation.

All students are encouraged to try out for our teams. Participation in the athletic program is a privilege granted in return for compliance with school policies regarding attendance, and academic achievement. (See: Co-Curricular Attendance Policy and Academic Eligibility Policy.)

The Board of Education of the City of New Rochelle maintains healthcare jurisdiction over Iona Prep. It requires that each year, in order for a student to participate in athletic competition, including try-outs, they MUST have a valid health physical to be completed by their primary care provider*. These forms must be signed and dated by a doctor and uploaded to FamilyID or sent to Iona Prep’s Health Office. New York State school health physical form is available on the school website if your physician requires one.

FAMILYID

All student-athletes must register using Iona Prep’s FamilyID registration page prior to participating in an athletic sport or try-out.
