Immunizations for school entry - please remember if your child is entering kindergarten or entering as a new student and does not have all the required immunizations, he or she will not be allowed to continue to attend school.
Education Law requires all New York State (NYS) public school students to have a health exam when they are a new student in a school district and when they enter Pre-K or Kindergarten, and grades 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11.
Beginning on 1/31/21, schools cannot accept the health exam if it is not on the required form or the required health record equivalent. *For Pre-k please make sure your doctor is sending physicals on the NYS required form. We cannot accept the form titled CHILD IN CARE MEDICAL STATEMENT as proof of Physical NYS required Health examination form.
All students requiring medications at school must have a doctor's order and parent permission. Medication must ALWAYS be dropped off by a parent. Please help us to keep kids safe by not sending medication in with your child to school. If a child brings in medication, it will be confiscated and a parent will be required to pick up the medication in the health office.
Please click this link for medication forms and more information.
If your child gets sick, it is often most appropriate to keep him/her home from school. A child who is sick will not be able to perform well in school and is likely to spread the illness to other children and staff. Please make arrangements for childcare ahead of time so you will not be caught without a place for your child to stay if he/she is ill.
Our school advises that you should not send your child to school if he/she has:
If your child becomes ill at school and the teacher or school nurse feels the child is too sick to benefit from school or is contagious to other children, you will be called to come and take him/her home from school. It is essential that we have a phone number where you can be contacted during the day and an emergency number in the event you cannot be reached. Please be sure that arrangements can be made to transport your child home from school and that childcare is available in case of illness.
