The Pennsylvania School Health Act requires a medical examination for every student starting school in grade K or 1, grade 6, and grade 11. If your school nurse currently does not have a recent updated physical form on record for your child, you can have the physical examination done by the school physician at no cost to you, or by your family physician.
Your family physician has a better knowledge of your child’s medical history and is in the best position to recommend necessary treatment and immunizations. Therefore, we encourage you to have the physical completed by your family physician and submit to your school nurse.
If you choose to have the examination done by our school physician, Dr. Louis Gianguilio, you will need to schedule an appointment. The school physicals will be conducted on Wednesday, April 12, at Northley Middle School beginning at 2:15 PM.
Please follow these steps:
- Call Mrs. King, RN at 610-497-6300, EXT. 3338 to make an appointment no later than Friday, March 31. NO STUDENTS WILL BE EXAMINED WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT
- Obtain a physical form here or from your school nurse, and complete the parent history section prior to the physical.
- Your child must report to Northley at the assigned time for the exam with the physical form. Parents should accompany their child for the exam.
PLEASE NOTE – NO IMMUNIZATIONS WILL BE GIVEN AT THIS APPOINTMENT.
