Notes from the Nurse

ENTERING KINDERGARTENERS:
Your child is required to be fully immunized before attending school in September. They are also required to have a health appraisal done as well. If you haven’t scheduled an appointment please do so as soon as possible.

If your child has a fall birthday the physical can wait until then but the immunizations must be complete prior to starting school on September 7, 2016.


ENTERING GRADES 2 & 4:
NYS Education law requires a health appraisal for the coming school year.

If you haven’t already done so, please schedule an appointment and send in the health appraisal form to your school’s health office. If you need a copy of the form use the link below:

If you cannot have this done before school starts please call the health office with the date of your appointment.


ENTERING GRADE 6
Your child is required to have the Tdap and the second Varicella vaccines before the start of school in September. If you haven’t already done so please make an appointment and send the paperwork in prior to the start of school on September 7, 2017.

If your child turns 11 yrs. after the start of school they must receive the vaccines within two weeks of turning 11 in order to avoid being excluded from school.
