NOTE: When your child enters First Grade NEXT school year (2021-2022), they will be required to submit a REPORT OF HEALTH FORM. You may meet the requirement if you take your child for a physical anytime between now and the start of his/her first grade year (the requirement is within 18 months). Simply have it completed and turn it in so that we may attach it to your child’s health record and he/she will be set for first grade. ** You may want to keep this in mind when scheduling your child's annual appointments.
Children entering First grade, in addition to the above, must have on file:
REPORT OF HEALTH EXAMINATION (must be dated March 1, 2019 or after) (form link below)
(This is a record of a health examination given by your child’s doctor. If your child has already had a physical within the time frame and all you need is to have the form completed, you may fax the form to your doctors and have them fax it directly back to the school office. Our fax number is: 408-268-5281. Otherwise, please take the form with you when your child has his/her health exam and return to the office by August 1, 2020.)
