IMPORTANT Information from the School Nurse:
- Third & FINAL notices were mailed home for 6th grade physical exams and also for 7th grade dental exams. It is a Pennsylvania School Health Law that record of these exams be kept on file for each student. Please schedule these exams with your private health care provider or dentist ASAP & submit the documentation to the school nurse once completed. If a student is unable to have a physical or dental exam, please complete the permission slip enclosed in the mailing to request that a physical or dental exam be completed by the school doctor or dentist. If you have any questions, please contact Leigh Ann Coary RN via email at coaryl@tesd.net or phone at 610-2401-1210.
