As of July 1, 2018 all New York State school students must have a health exam when they enter school as a new entrant and in Pre-K or Kindergarten as well as grades 1, 3, 5, 7,9, and 11. These examinations must be completed on the approved NYSED Student Health Examination Form for school. This exam must include body mass index and weight status category information.
You are encouraged to have your family physician examine your child and forward a copy of his/her physical exam to the Health Office. Your child's doctor is more familiar with your child's health history and consequently can conduct a more comprehensive examination of your child that can be done at school. Please have your family physician fax physical examinations to (315)346-1586.
If we do not receive a copy of your child's physical exam as required, he/she will be scheduled for an exam in school with the school physician. You will be notified of any abnormal findings. Dr. Gianfagna is the school Medical Director.
Physical examinations are required every year for students who wish to play in interscholastic sports.
