• As Richard O. Jacobson Technical High School does not have sports programs, Pinellas County Schools has permitted our students to participate in their zoned school's sports programs.  The School Board of Pinellas County has only authorized co-enrollment for SPORTS ONLY (not band or color guard). 

    Email the completed form to Student Assignment at StudentAssignment@pcsb.org.  Upon their approval, Student Assignment will forward the completed form to the Athletic Department.  Upon the approval of the Athletic Department, will send the authorization to your zoned school.   Marc Allison is the Director of Athletics for PCS.  If your request was denied, please contact him. (727)  588-6000  PCSAthletics@pcsb.org  

    Steps to participating in sports programs:

    • Complete the required Co-Enrollment form for ROJ.  Upon approval, you will receive a copy of the approved form.  Once you get the approval, you can then...
      1. Bring two proofs of residency to the co-enrollment school where your child will be participating in their sports program.  
      2. Complete the Athletic Participation Form.
      3. Purchase the necessary insurance.  If your child purchased insurance through Richard O. Jacobson Technical High School, include the screen print of your receipt.  If your child is participating in football, it requires tackle insurance which is not covered under the general policy.
