IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT CONCUSSION TESTING:
Monroe Township High School utilizes a software program to assess head injuries, called ImPACT. This program tests all athletes pre-season and obtains a baseline measurement on neurocognitive function. During the season, if an athlete has a suspected head injury, he/she is retested and the result is compared to the original, baseline measurement. An athlete is not allowed to return to play after a head injury until he/she has written permission from a doctor and has completed the return to play protocol.
One baseline ImPACT exam is valid for two years (unless a concussion is sustained - then a new baseline exam will be needed. The following athletes must take the ImPACT exam to ensure one baseline exam is taken every two years:
- Freshmen
- Juniors
- Any new students to Monroe Township High School Athletics who has not taken a baseline ImPACT Test in the past two years.
- Any student who suffered a concussion during the previous school year.
