Attention Parents:
The FHSAA is conducting a
survey of parents whose
children participate in
interscholastic athletics.
Please forward the survey
link (found below) to your
parents and request their
responses.
The purpose of this survey
is to:
1) determine the level of
communication provided by
member schools'
representatives to parents
and students regarding
participation in non-school
athletic activities
affiliated with the school;
2) determine if parents feel
schools and/or school
representatives should be
held accountable if they do
not communicate the impact
of this rule on the student
/ parent(s).
Parents will be asked to
provide their email address
and school with which they
are affiliated. We may use
the email addresses for
future communications of
this kind. Their email
addresses WILL NOT be
provided to any third party
entity for the purpose of
advertising / marketing.
Have no fear! We are only
collecting the name of the
school for tracking schools
that participate by
forwarding the email as
requested. We will not use
the school information for
the purpose of penalizing a
school based on the parents’
responses.
***Dear Parents:***
By now you should have
reviewed the information
(above) sent to FHSAA member
schools which your child(ren)
attends. Please complete
this survey as it pertains
to student-athletes’
participation in non-school
athletic activities (club
ball / travel ball). If
your child does not
participate in non-school
athletic activities, we
still request that you
complete the survey for
input on a few other
questions.
