Mr. Campobasso

Updates for August 10, 2026

Dear Athletes, Students, and Families,

As we look ahead to the beginning of  2026–2027 school year, we are excited to welcome our student-athletes and performers back to the stage, fields, courts, and courses.

This offseason, our department dedicated time to focusing on all aspects of student health and wellness. We want to ensure that our students are supported both physically and mentally so they can perform at their highest potential in a safe environment.

Here are several key updates and health initiatives for the upcoming year:

Health, Safety, and Mental Wellness Training

We worked with our coaching staff over the summer to ensure all coaches maintain full currency in their core certifications, including Coaching Certification, Concussion protocol, CPR/AED training, and First Aid.

Additionally, we partnered with the Community Impact Team to offer Mental Health First Aid training to our coaching staff. Our ultimate goal is to have 100% of our coaches trained in Mental Health First Aid so we are better equipped to serve, recognize, and assist our students whenever needed.

Nutrition & Performance Education

Proper fueling is essential for peak performance and recovery, especially during intense summer training. Earlier this summer, Brooke Caplinger, North Reading's Dietitian and Nutritionist, shared foundational fueling resources with our teams.

This season, we have scheduled dedicated sessions for each of our fall athletic programs to meet directly with Ms. Caplinger. These sessions will dive deeper into effective strategies for fueling the body, staying hydrated, and staying prepared for the demands of training and competition in the late-summer heat.

Athletic Training & Healthcare Services

Our greatest asset in maintaining the physical health of our student-athletes is our Certified Athletic Trainer, Chrissy Marotto. Below is an important message and detailed resource guide directly from Chrissy regarding athletic healthcare, injury coordination, and return-to-play protocols for the season:

Message from North Reading High School Athletic Trainer Chrissy Marotto:

As the athletic trainer at North Reading High School, I provide healthcare services for all student‑athletes. This includes on‑field evaluations during practices and games, after-school injury assessments, rehabilitation, and guiding athletes safely through their return to sport process.

I also work through Mass General Brigham, which gives our athletes direct access to orthopedic care. If an athlete needs further evaluation, I can help coordinate same-day visits at the MGB Walk‑In Orthopedic Clinic in Peabody or arrange an appointment with an orthopedic physician within a few days.\

Communication & Return to Play

If an athlete sees a physician for an injury, please notify me immediately. The athlete must have written clearance before returning to sport.

For concussions, athletes must receive written clearance by a physician and complete the required return-to-play protocol under my direct supervision to ensure a safe and gradual progression back to activity.

My goal is to keep our athletes healthy, informed, and supported throughout their seasons. If you ever have questions or concerns, please reach out—I’m here to help!

Contact: cmarotto@nrpsk12.org

As we prepare for an exciting fall season, please review the key dates, baseline testing schedule, fall sports details outlined below.
