Physical Examinations

Grade and sports physicals will conducted at the Jr-Sr
High School by the
school physician on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008. School physicals will not be
offered again until October, 2008. Any student entering the
district this year, as well as all 7th and 10th graders must have a completed
current physical form on file in the health office (dated within 12 months of
the first day of classes) within 30 days of the beginning of the 2008-2009
school year. Students wishing to participate in sports must also
have a current physical on file (within 12 months of the first day of
tryouts for the sport season) Ms. Rohe
must qualify each athlete before they can participate in the sports program;
qualification requires a review of the completed physical form
(required annually) and
the health history form (completed by the parent within 30 days of
the first day of tryouts for EACH season). The qualification process does take some
time; therefore parents need to be sure all athlete's forms are
dropped off/mailed to Ms. Rohe prior to tryouts. It is suggested that these examinations be done by your family
physician, as he/she is most familiar with your child and is better able
to judge any change or problem in your child's health status. Your
primary care provider may need to update your child's immunizations
as well. Summer is a good time to schedule these appointments.
However, school physicals are provided each year for those parents who
would prefer to have their child's exam done at school. The May 28th
school physical will cover your student for the fall sports season as well
as the required school physical for all 7th and 10th graders. Please call Ms.
Rohe at 552-5026 if you would like more information regarding school/sports
physicals. Health History forms and Physical forms may be printed from this website for use
by your private physician.
