Dear Parents and Guardians,
We acknowledge the challenges faced this past school year in sending required health documentation to school. Please see below for the required forms and documentation for your student(s). These documents which are required by the state are one of the ways we ensure your child is safe here at school.

o
Physical and dental exams performed by your physician within 12 months prior to the first day of school are acceptable as are sports physicals. If you prefer to have your child examined by the school physician and/or school dentist, the exam will be conducted sometime during the upcoming school year.
o
If your child has received any immunizations within the past year, please submit those as well for our records. Please reference this page for the
PA Department of Health vaccination requirements.
Additionally, if your child receives vaccination for COVID, please send proof of this to the School Nurses’ office of your student’s school building. Accurate identification of vaccinated students is especially relevant if contact tracing is required to be conducted in school.
o
All physical forms, action plans, and medication forms can be found on each school’s website under the Health Services Department tab. Please submit required documentation within the first week of school to the Nurses’ Office if these apply to your child.
o
Please also ensure that your child’s 2021-2022 Health Form is completed in Skyward. This provides us with your permission to administer treatment your child during the school day
Thank you for helping us to care for your child!
Sincerely,
The Phoenixville School District Nurses
