What if my child has an appointment in the fall for a physical and immunizations?
Your health insurance will only cover one well child physical examination per year. If your child’s annual physical examination usually takes place in the fall, the most recent physical examination your child has had to date “should” be accepted for registration. Please provide documentation of your child’s most recent physical examination to your school nurse. Your school nurse will review the physical examination you have provided and inform you if it is not within the accepted time period. If you have received notification from the school nurse that your child is missing immunizations, these must be administered before school starts in September. Missing immunizations cannot wait until the fall to be administered. You need to schedule an appointment with your doctor for the missing immunizations.
