Our FCHS Athletic Handbook is now available online on your Teacherease account. Anyone that plans on participating on any athletic team needs to complete the five forms included in the handbook. Also, any student playing football needs to upload a copy of their insurance cards. Athletic Physicals can be turned into the FCHS office. All Fall Sports Athletes must have this completed before the first day of tryouts/practice on Monday, August 12, 2024. Students who have not completed the online athletic registration process will not be allowed to tryout, or participate in practice, until this process is completed. Please contact the FCHS office with any questions.
