Therefore, the purpose of this Code of Conduct is to clarify the general responsibilities and standards of students participating in extracurricular activities including athletes within District 95. This document is based upon the middle school eligibility policy and the District 95 Code of Conduct. The District 95 Code of Conduct can be found on our district website and in the district calendar/handbook that all parents/guardians receive on an annual basis . Please see those documents for further clarification and information.

They are caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, or by a blow to another part of the body with the force transmitted to the head. They can range from mild to severe and can disrupt the way the brain normally works. Even though most concussions are mild, all concussions are potentially serious and may result in complications including prolonged brain damage and death if not recognized and managed properly. In other words, even a “ding” or a bump on the head can be serious. You can’t see a concussion and most sports concussions occur without loss of consciousness. Signs and symptoms of concussion may show up right after the injury or can take hours or days to fully appear. If your child reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms or signs of concussion yourself, seek medical attention right away. Symptoms may include one or more of the following: x Headaches x “Pressure in head” x Nausea or vomiting x Neck pain x Balance problems or dizziness x Blurred, double, or fuzzy vision x Sensitivity to light or noise x Feeling sluggish or slowed down x Feeling foggy or groggy x Drowsiness x Change in sleep patterns x x x x x x x x x x Amnesia “Don’t feel right” Fatigue or low energy Sadness Nervousness or anxiety Irritability More emotional Confusion Concentration or memory problems (forgetting game plays) Repeating the same question/comment Signs observed by teammates, parents and coaches/sponsors include: x Appears dazed x Vacant facial expression x Confused about assignment x Forgets plays x Is unsure of game, score, or opponent x Moves clumsily or displays incoordination x Answers questions slowly x Slurred speech x Shows behavior or personality changes x Can’t recall events prior to hit x Can’t recall events after hit x Seizures or convulsions x Any change in typical behavior or personality x Loses consciousness District 95 Administration Center - 400 South Old Rand Road - Lake Zurich IL 60047-2459 Phone: (847) 438-2831 FAX: (847) 438-6702 www.lz95.org 7:300-E1 (6) What can happen if my child keeps on playing with a concussion or returns too soon? Students with the signs and symptoms of concussion should be removed from participation immediately. Continuing to participate with the signs and symptoms of a concussion leaves the student especially vulnerable to greater injury. There is an increased risk of significant damage from a concussion for a period of time after that concussion occurs, particularly if the student suffers another concussion before completely recovering from the first one. This can lead to prolonged recovery, or even to severe brain swelling (second impact syndrome) with devastating and even fatal consequences. It is well known that adolescent or teenage students will often fail to report symptoms of injuries. Concussions are no different. As a result, education of administrators, coaches, sponsors, parents and students are the key to student’s safety. If you think your child has suffered a concussion Any student even suspected of suffering a concussion should be removed from the participation immediately. No student may return to activity after an apparent head injury or concussion, regardless of how mild it seems or how quickly symptoms clear, without medical clearance. Close observation of the student should continue for several hours. IHSA, IESA and CUSD 95 Policies require students to provide their school with written clearance from either a physician licensed to practice medicine in all its branches or a certified athletic trainer working in conjunction with a physician licensed to practice medicine in all its branches prior to returning to play, practice or participation following a concussion or after being removed from an interscholastic contest or activity due to a possible head injury or concussion and not cleared to return to that same contest/event. In accordance with state law, all IHSA, IESA and CUSD 95 schools are required to follow this policy. You should also inform your child’s coach/sponsor if you think that your child may have a concussion. Remember it’s better to miss one game than miss the whole season. And when in doubt, the athlete sits out. For current and up-to-date information on concussions you can go to: http://www.cdc.gov/ConcussionInYouthSports/ District 95 Concussion Management Guidelines The following guidelines will be followed when a student athlete exhibits signs of a concussion. A timeframe will not be determined as a standard but rather on an individual basis since each concussion is different. Lake Zurich High School students may take the ImPACT concussion test and the results of it will help to determine the level of participation. 1. 2. 3. 4. Removal from contest following signs and symptoms of concussion. No return to play in current game or practice. Medical evaluation following injury. Rule out more serious intracranial pathology. Written clearance from a physician licensed to practice medicine in all of its branches or a certified athletic trainer. A District 95 Athletic Trainer will have the final say on when a student is cleared to participate.
