Program Support Fees
Program Support Fees are $50 per student, per sport. Fees can be paid online on School Pay or via check (made out to ZCS). If a student is on free/reduced lunch then the fee acts as such (free/$25). The fee must be paid prior to the first official competition.
Required Forms: All athletes must have an IHSAA approved physical form uploaded in Final Forms before he or she may participate in any practice or contest. ALL PHYSICALS MUST BE DATED AFTER APRIL 1 OF THE PRECEDING SCHOOL YEAR. The parent of the athlete, and the participating athlete, must also complete the online signature forms before participation.
1. Electronic Forms - We are very excited to announce that Zionsville Middle School has partnered with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service. FinalForms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students. You may review your data at any time to verify it is current. You will be required to sign your forms once per year and after any update. Starting this year, you must upload your Physical Form directly to your FinalForms account.
Please register at https://zionsville-in.finalforms.com and follow the prompts to create your account, create your students and sign your forms.
The Parent Playbook (view here) will help get you started in FinalForms. Since FinalForms will now take the place of our previous software (RankOne), ALL parents of athletes must use FinalForms.
2. Physical Form - Must be on the IHSAA physical form and uploaded on Final Forms. In order to be valid for the 2023-24 school year, physical examination must be completed on or after April 1, 2023.
2022-23 Physical Form
Required before first contest: Program Support/Transportation Fees are $50. Fees can be paid online (School Pay) or via check (made out to ZCS). If a student is on free/reduced lunch then the fee acts as such (free/$25). The fee must be paid prior to the first official competition.
School-issued locks
Student-athletes need to purchase a school-issued lock for $7 (checks can be made out to ZMS). The lock can be purchased from myself or from our guidance assistants in the front office area. If the student-athlete cannot remember his/her combination to a lock purchased previously, we can look up that information from him/her.
More information about grade checks and conduct expectations can be found in our school’s handbook!
