Athletic Forms for Key West High School Athletics

Athletes and Parents – We are moving to an online clearance process through www.AthleticClearance.com. This will replace the hardcopy packets/clearance card system previously used and expedite the process for our athletes while maintaining social distancing. All required athletic forms must be completed online. This includes all students who have turned in forms via email, mail or in person prior to this launch.

Please be prepared with the following items to complete your submission:
