Per the Pennsylvania Department of Health, on the first day of school, unless your child has a medical or religious/philosophical exemption, they must have a physical exam and the following immunizations.

 

Physical examinations are required for children upon original entry into school, in Grade 6, and in Grade 11, and for any student who does not have documentation of a physical exam from their previous school. These examination intervals are recommended because the ages are critical periods in the growth and development of children. The physical examination must have been done AFTER September 1st of the previous year.

 

If not already done, please schedule your child's physical exam as soon as possible and have your physician complete and sign the physical exam form available as an attachment below.

 

Pennsylvania’s school immunization requirements can be found on the Pennsylvania Department of Health website at https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/programs/immunizations/Pages/School.aspx

 

If not already done, please schedule your child's immunizations as soon as possible and have your physician complete and sign the medical certificate available as an attachment below.

 

Dental evaluations are required within one year of entry to Grades 1, 3, and 7. If not already done, please schedule your child's dental exam as soon as possible and have your dentist complete and sign the exam form available as an attachment below. If this form is not returned or returned without a dentist’s signature, the student will be evaluated by the District’s certified school dental hygienist at no cost to the family.

 

Please contact your child’s school nurse if you need help obtaining any of the requirements noted above or have questions about your child's health record. Once completed, required forms can be returned to the school nurse at the start of the school year or scanned and emailed throughout the summer.
