Health Records
Not sure what health records you need for your student for the upcoming school year? Contact the school nurse to know exactly what your student(s) need so you can start making your appointments now. Physicals with immunizations and vision exams are acceptable if they are dated within 1 year of the start of the school year. Dental exam are acceptable if within 18 months of the due date (May 15th). Current 8th graders at ZCMS can see the mobile dentist on May 13th, 2022 and use that dental exam to meet the 9th grade requirements.
