Kindergarten and Fourth Grade Physical Exam Requirement
The Massachusetts Immunization Law (Chapter 76, Section 15) requires all students to provide proof of immunizations as a requirement for school attendance. Students must also have a recent physical on file for grades Kindergarten, Fourth, Seventh, and Eleventh.
The required physical should include the date (month, day, year), signed by a physician and must be submitted prior to entering or re-entering school. You can have the physician's office fax it directing to our health office at 508 828 2968.
Spare Clothing:
Accidents Happen!
In addition to bathroom accidents, nose bleeds, lunch spills, art class mishaps, and recess falls all require clothing changes. It is advised that all children have a spare set of clothing at school. This includes a shirt, pants, underpants, and socks. In the event that your child needs a clothing change, we can quickly assist them into clean, dry clothing and have them return to class with little time away from learning. All clothing can be placed in a Zip-Lock bag labeled with your child’s name. All spare clothing may be left in your child's backpack in the classroom.
