High school provides many challenges for your child. Please talk to your child to see how s/he is coping. Communication is a powerful tool for parents and school staff to support the children as they deal with the demands of high school.
In an effort to support parental decisions, if you decide to send your child to school, I will encourage him/her to remain in school - unless there are observable or measurable signs of illness.
Attention: Parents of 11th grade students
All 11th grade students are required by the state to have a current Physical Exam (PE) form on file with their school nurse (10th grade Physical Exam reports are acceptable).
Please return your child’s Physical Exam report (or copy of their sports physical) to the school nurse by the first day of school of their junior year. Physical Exam forms are available in the HS Office or on the district website.
Attention: Parents of 12th grade students
Please be aware that The Pennsylvania Department of Health requires all students entering 12th grade to have a second meningococcal vaccination.
Proof of this immunization must be submitted by all incoming seniors before the start of school their senior year.
This immunization is typically given at the 16 year old physical. Please contact your child's doctor to see if they already received the shot or to schedule an appointment for them to receive the shot it.
Please provide the school with a copy of your child’s immunization record from the doctor’s office confirming they have had this immunization before the end of school their junior year if possible.
