On November 6 and 7, Southern Columbia students participated in the Columbia-Montour County Choir held at Benton High School. Students had to audition against their peers to earn the opportunity to perform on Thursday evening to a sold-out crowd. Congrats to all involved! You make SCA proud! 🐯🎶

Kailee Helwig also dazzled for the Divas, catching a touchdown pass and securing an interception in the win. 🏈

Happy Veterans Day!
In regards to PIAA paperwork for WINTER ATHLETES-
Parents of fall athletes:
In the Healthy Roster app, under the “documents” tab, please complete the form titled “CIPPE Section 7 Recertification”. You will find this in the drop down tab after selecting the “+” in the top right corner. You do NOT need to enter insurance info.
Parents of winter athletes:
If you have not already received access to Healthy Roster, please email Alexcis at aconingsby@scasd.us with your child’s NAME, DOB, GRADE and the sport they are playing. I need this email in order to add you as a parent on their profile. I will then send you a link and code (via Healthy Roster domain) that will give you access. Once connected, there are 6 forms that will need to be completed in order for your child to start practicing. Section 6 is the PIAA physical, that must be completed by a doctor or PA. If your child received a yearly physical after May 1, 2024, contact their PCP and ask for a copy to be faxed to the school (570-356-2835). Convenient Care also allows walk-ins for sports physicals. They do not need to be on the PIAA form, as long as somewhere on the physical it states that the child is cleared to participate in sports.
Any questions, you can email Alexcis (aconingsby@scasd.us) or message her via Healthy Roster.
