We want to remind you that we are fast approaching the deadline for students to have their physical and immunization information turned in per state guidelines.
Please make sure that you have contacted your school’s nurse with your child’s upcoming physical/immunization appointment or that you have turned in your physical and immunization paperwork this week.
Students failing to provide required health information will be excluded from school starting October 1st.

Dear Parents,
This is a friendly reminder that the state exclusion date is nearing. If your child is not compliant with either the physical or the immunizations, you should have or will receive a letter in the mail. The date of the physical must be dated after 8/21/22 and be on an IDPH physical form. Per state law, students will be excluded from school at 8:00 am on October 2, 2023, unless physical proof of appointment is provided prior to October 14, 2023. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you are having difficulty completing these. I am more than happy to help.
