Registration information
Each sport season, before the student athlete can try out, he/she must submit the following to the School Nurse/Athletic Department:
1. A current (present school year) Sport Physical Card completed, signed, and stamped by a physician licensed by New York State to practice medicine. While a student can see a private physician, there will be no charge to see a school physician. Read more on our Physicals information page.
2. An Interim Health History form completed and signed by the student's parent/guardian. (Unless the student receives a sports physical by a licensed physician within the immediately preceding 30 calendar days.)
3. The parent acknowledgment and permission to participate must be signed by the student's parent/guardian.
When the above is received by the Nurse/Athletic Department, a student will be eligible for participation.

High School Gym Renovation
As part of a proposition approved by residents in October 2024, the Red Hook High School gymnasium underwent a complete renovation in summer 2025 and into the fall. The floor and bleachers, original to the school’s 1963 opening, were to be replaced to improve the safety and accessibility of the space. The knee wall, part of a stage that was closed off following the opening of the Performing Arts Center, was removed and the space is to be used for more bleachers. The bleachers are scheduled to be installed in October.
