Required by 10/1 - AIA Mandated

AIA NEEDS YOU TO COMPLETE

We have spoke to several of you, and we want to clarify, this is NOT the same thing as the concussion paper you turned in with your original district paperwork. This is an AIA requirement, NOT just Paradise Valley Unified School District requirement. An athlete may become ineligible to play ANY sports if this is not completed by the deadline. PLEASE COMPLETE THIS ASAP. You will need to complete a quick registration and plan on the whole thing taking roughly 40-50 minutes.  

MANDATORY – FULL TEAM PARTICIPATION IS REQUIRED!!!  (Even if you are a returning swimmer – so this means every swimmer and diver.)
 
Below is the link to the AIA mandated student concussion education program called Brainbook.  All fall athletes must take this course before Oct. 1st.  They need to print out the completion certificate and turn in to Ms. Roman.  They only need to do this course 1 time for their HS career.  If the link is not working, it can be found on aiaonline.org under the AIA academy link at the top.  Please take it seriously because you do have to finish a test at the end of the course.

Questions?
Where does the cash for incentives come from?!?!  
 
Jamba will donate 3% of your entire sale in cash incentives. 
In order to make this a successful fundraiser and show YOUR support for you organization, Jamba asks that you match our contribution of 3%, allowing for 6% of your sale to be directed toward cash incentives.
 
For example – If your organization runs a $5,000 sale.  Jamba will donate $150.00 for incentives, and your organization will match Jamba for a total of $300.00 in cash giveaways.
 
If your sale is not as successful as planned, we will eliminate certain incentives.
**Incentives do not have to be cash – this is open to discuss.  It could be t-shirts, gym bags, etc.  However, the maximum contribution from Jamba will be 3%.
