Register for Athletics
Tacoma Public Schools Athletic Department has partnered with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service. FinalForms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students. The most exciting news is that FinalForms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning that you will never need to enter the same information twice! FinalForms also pre-populates information wherever possible, for each of your students, saving you time. You may review your data at any time to verify it is current or make changes. You will be required to sign your forms once per year and after any form updates.
In order to register Parents and Students must confirm their individual accounts using the link provided in an email sent from FinalForms. If you did not receive an email from FinalForms or the link has expired please contact your building athletic director or the district athletics department at (253) 571-1123.
