Physical Guidelines for the 2025-2026 School Year
New York State Education Law requires that all students entering Pre-K, Kindergarten, grades 1,3,5,7, 9, and 11, and all students who are new to the district have a physical examination by a NY State Licensed Provider. All physicals must be on the NYS Health Examination Form or the required health record equivalent.
This certificate must be provided to the school nurse within 30 days of the start of school.
Acceptable health certificates may be dated anytime within 12 months prior to the start of the 2025/2026 school year (September 4, 2024 or later).
It is recommended that this examination be scheduled with your child's health care provider who knows your child best.
Please have your child's health care provider complete the attached form or contact the health office if you would like your child to have a physical at school with our Board of Education Appointed Health Care Provider.
If your child has a physical scheduled, please notify the health office of he appointment date.
*If a copy of physical or a physical appointment date is not received a physical exam will be conducted at school by a BOE appointed health care provider.
