Parents should bring sports physicals for either HMS and/or HHS sports to Hillsborough HIGH SCHOOL. Please pull up to the horseshoe by the gymnasium and look for door #37. A black lock box will be installed there. Drop your paperwork into the drop box and a school nurse will submit your paperwork. The High School health office will be processing all sports medical forms for BOTH HMS and HHS during the summer.
