Aspen, the North Hunterdon-Voorhees district’s student information system, is now open to accept required annual health forms for the 2022-2023 school year and registration forms for Fall sports. Parents can register their student for Fall sports from July 5 through August 5, 2022. All forms must be filled out in Aspen, with the exception of the physical form which must be submitted directly to the health office. Physical forms are required for sports and intramural registration and for any student new to the high school district.
Freshmen parents – if you did not receive the automated email to set up your parent Aspen account, please contact our database manager, Sherri DiMarcello, at sdimarcello@nhvweb.net and she will resend the information to you.
All Parents – Annual Health Forms:
Log into your parent Aspen account and click on Page Directory on left hand side. Click on Health Forms to fill out all required health forms for the new school year. Health forms must be filled out annually for each student. If you recently filled out health forms for summer intramurals, you do not have to fill them out again.
Physicals:
All incoming freshmen and new students to the district must turn in a valid physical by August 1st. We recommend fall sports athletes also turn in a valid physical (if it has expired) at least two weeks prior to start of sport so there is no delay in practicing. The original and signed physical form must be dropped off to the health office or mailed to the health office – keep a copy for your records. The only exception is freshmen parents can turn in a photocopy of the physical as their child’s previous school may have the original. For a blank physical form, please visit the health office website – https://www.nhvweb.net/vhs/healthoffice/.
Fall Sports and Marching Band:
The Fall sports offered at Voorhees High School are listed below with names of the head coaches. To register your student for Fall sports or marching band, log into your parent Aspen account and click on Page Directory on left hand side. Click on Voorhees Sport to fill out the required sports registration forms. You will select the sport of choice in the Consent for Participation Form. You can run a checklist report at the bottom of the Voorhees Sport section to see if you are missing any required forms. For help navigating the Voorhees Sport section, please click here for assistance.
ImPact baseline test for concussions is required and the test is valid for two years. Incoming freshmen parents received an email from the athletic trainer on how freshmen could complete ImPact testing at home (check your junk folder if you don’t have it). Only students who never had an ImPact test (i.e. incoming freshmen or new students) or whose test has expired will need to complete testing (trainer already reached out to juniors with expired tests).
A valid physical form must be on file, which means it should be dated after August 10, 2021, as a valid physical is one that has not expired within 365 days of the start of sports. Please click here for practice start dates and locations. The school doctor must review all physical forms so please turn in the physical form as soon as possible so your child is not delayed from practicing on the first day.
Athlete’s Responsibility for Sports Registration:
There is one form that student-athletes must fill out themselves in their own student Aspen account for sports registration. Athletes need to log into their student Aspen account, click on Page Directory on left hand side, then click on VH Student, and complete the Sports Wellness Acknowledgement Form. In the form, athletes will review the Sudden Cardiac Arrest pamphlet from NJDOE and the Opioid Video from NJSIAA. Make sure they click Submit at bottom of form so the form goes through.
For freshmen athletes – The technology department creates the student Aspen and Google email accounts for all incoming freshmen and their login information will be listed in the parent’s Aspen account after July 6th when we rollover the system for new school year. Parents will find the information by logging into their parent Aspen account, clicking on Family top tab, clicking on student’s name, then clicking on Technology tab along the top row, see screenshot below. Email address and password listed will allow freshman to sign into their school Gmail and Google Drive accounts. To access Aspen, students will go to Aspen login page, http://aspen.nhvweb.net/, log in using AASP button, and then sign in through Google with their school email address and password as listed under the Technology tab.
If you have any questions about required forms, please contact the health office at 908-638-2148.
