Health Care: The school nurse is on duty in the health office to care for students health needs. During the year, each child receives screenings for vision, hearing and scoliosis per NYS Guidelines. Physicals per NYS Guidelines are required for kindergarten, first, third, fifth and new entrants to the district. Be sure to send a copy of your students physical into the School Nurse. If one is not received one will be done free of charge by the Districts Nurse Practitioner. The school nurse is not allowed to dispense medication of any kind without written order from a physician.
