Concussion Education Requirements and Baseline Testing
In order for a student-athlete to participate in interscholastic sports, all student-athletes are required to complete baseline concussion testing every two years. Additionally, the parent/guardian and the student-athlete must complete the CDC Heads Up or NFHS online concussion course mandated by the Massachusetts concussion law.
Beginning 6/2023, all ImPACT Testing will be done in person at WHS. Testing will be administered by the Athletic Trainer. Sign-Up Sheets are posted oustide of the Athletic Trainer's Office. Rising freshmen will be assigned a time by their Coach to complete ImPACT Testing during preseason tryouts.
