Answers
Answer:
Healthier students are better learners. We want to support your child’s health to make your child more successful inside and outside of school. To help manage your child’s health needs in school, we require you and your child’s health care provider to complete certain forms. Using these forms helps assure that your child gets the care and services they need during the school day.
New Admission Examination
Is your child starting school or child care for the first time? Before school starts, make sure your child receives a complete physical exam from a health care provider.
The physical exam should cover the following:
Medical History
Height
Weight
Body Mass Index
Vision Exam
Blood Pressure
Nutritional Evaluation
Dental Exam
Developmental Assessment
Hearing Exam
Immunizations
Your child must also be tested for lead presence and anemia if they are receiving child care for the first time (including pre-K classes).
Be sure that your doctor completes the New Admission Physical Exam Form (CH-205)(Open external link) and gives it to you to take home. Completed CH205 forms printed from the CIR Online Registry, which is the older version of this form, will continue to be accepted. While we accept the form during peak registration and on a rolling basis, ideally you would submit it to your school by July 13, 2018.

Vision
While in school, your child will be screened to make sure that s(he) can see properly. It is important that we make sure all students with vision problems receive exams and the treatment they need to thrive in school.
Vision problems that go untreated can have long-term consequences to your child’s health. For example, three percent of children suffer from amblyopia(Open external link), or “lazy eye”, a condition that can result in blindness in one eye if it is not found and treated before age seven.
Vision Screenings
Students are required to have vision screenings. We screen the following students:
Grades pre-k, kindergarten, 1, 3, and 5
New students
Students referred for Special Education evaluation and students currently in Special Education classes
Students referred by teachers
Students that were found to be at anything other than normal or high risk from a previous test
Eye Report and Recommendation Form
If your child fails the vision screening, they will receive the Eye Report and Recommendation Form (E-12S). This form must be completed by an eye doctor who will give your child an exam, diagnose, and treat your child’s eye problem. If you need help finding an eye doctor, please review our vision resource list:
