 State of Illinois Mandatory Health Requirements for Students

  

All 9th graders:

Required to have a physical examination and complete immunizations (Including the Hepatitis B series) before they begin high school. Every effort must be made to have this physical examination completed PRIOR to the start of school in August. An appointment card or fax from the doctor’s office confirming an upcoming appointment will be accepted. (The nurse’s fax number is 847-932-2188). Please be aware that this required entry physical exam can be used as a sport physical for one year from the date completed. However, a sport physical cannot be used as the required physical for 9th grade.

We suggest that you make an appointment now for a physical exam sometime in late spring or early summer.

Any student NOT in compliance with these health requirements will be excluded from school on October 15th.

 

Transfer students Grades 10. 11. 12:

  

From an Illinois High School:

Student must present copy of their 9th grade physical with all immunizations at the time of registration. Counselors can have their former school fax a copy during the registration process if the student does not bring one.

  

Out of state transfers:

The student still must present current immunizations to enter school.

 

From out of the country:

Student must present at least immunizations at the time of registration. The student has 30 days to complete the required physical examination and receive any other immunizations needed.
