Enroll Now for Free School-Based Telehealth Virtual Healthcare
Sherman ISD has partnered with Children's Health to provide free school-based telehealth virtual healthcare for all students.

Through this program, your child can see a licensed health provider if he or she becomes ill at school.

How It Works

  1. The school nurse will determine if a Children’s Health provider is needed to diagnose your child, based on certain guidelines.
  2. You will be contacted with appointment information and invited to participate by phone.
  3. An appointment will be set up with the Children’s Health provider.
  4. The school nurse will connect your child with the Children’s Health provider using video technology.
  5. The school nurse and Children’s Health provider will conduct an exam.
  6. If necessary, the Children’s Health provider will call in a prescription to your chosen pharmacy.
  7. Children’s Health will send an after-visit summary to you and your child’s primary care pediatrician to continue treatment as necessary.

Parents must enroll their child in the program to participate. You must submit a new enrollment form at the beginning of each school year. Enrollment is available online, or you can complete the consent forms and submit them to your child's campus.
