A physical examination of
the school child is the combined responsibility of the school and family.
Under M.G.L. c. 71, s. 57 and related amendments and regulations (105 CMR
200.000-200.920), a physical examination is required at this interval of your
child's education. The objectives to this health examination are to
understand and follow up on health conditions that may adversely affect the
student's well being and ability to learn.
Your family physician,
who has a comprehensive knowledge of the health and immunization status of your
child, should provide you a copy for your records. Please forward this
document to me after your child's physical examination. Any physical
exams done during eighth to ninth grade will be accepted. In addition, it is
good practice to send in a copy every year!
Thank You in Advance
