All students are encouraged to have routine physicals sometime around their 8th grade year. Please arrange this with your family physicians. Remember that the school no longer provides routine physicals. Please use your family physician or medical clinics.

All families received a NURSE HANDBOOK on the first day of school.If you did not receive one, you can pick one up in guidance or the nurse's office. Scoliosis forms need only be completed by families of 7th graders.

If your child suffers with severe hayfever, you can send in eye drops for the season.

Remember that a new student must have a physical exam by a health care provider within the first month. Call me with any questions:
