Physical Examinations

The State of New Jersey recommends that your child have a yearly well child examination with their physician. Well child exams are important tools to insure that your child is growing and developing well. They are a great time to ask your physician any questions you may have regarding your child. Well child examinations at ages 4-6, 11, and 16 are required for immunizations. Please be sure to provide our school nurse with proof of any immunizations provided to your child and keep a copy for your own records. You can obtain a copy of our Report of Physical Examination, form by clicking the link below or contacting our school nurse.
