Completion of an EL12 Form (Registration Form for Non-Member Private School Students) is required. Eligible students who are attending a non- FHSAA private school may participate in athletics and extracurricular activities at a designated traditional high school outside the attendance boundary of the assigned district school through the Athletic Choice process.
