Message from the School Nurse
Physical & Dental Exams
Sixth grade students require a physical examination and seventh grade students require a dental examination. If your child has had these examinations, please be sure to send a copy to the Nurse's office. Forms are available on the PV website. Your cooperation with this is most appreciated!
Ill students
Any student who is feeling ill during the school day must visit the health suite. They should not contact a parent on their own without seeing the nurse.
Medication
If your child requires medication during the school day, please be sure to bring the medication to school with the appropriate forms completed by the physician. Forms can be found on the PV website. No medication should be in the student’s possession (pockets, lunch, purse/handbag, or backpack). All medications are to be delivered directly to the nurse’s office and kept in the health room unless otherwise designated by the school nurse.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns regarding your child. I can be reached at 610-409-8580 or emailed at tespersen@pvsd.org
