Health Requirements & Forms

  • State of Illinois law requires school districts to have certain health information on file for students entering a specific grade including verification of immunizations as well as physical, dental, and eye examinations. Students who do not have a current physical exam and immunization records on file will be excluded from school (including summer school) until all health requirements are met.

    A complete list of physical examination and immunization requirements is available on the Health Requirements for Grades 9-12 page. Below are many of the forms you and your health care provider will need in order to meet these requirements. To discuss health requirements or forms with a school nurse, call (847) 424-7260.
