Dear Early Childhood Parents,
We hope you and your family are enjoying the summertime together. We are already looking towards orientation and the first days of school. Enclosed are some helpful tips and information about our program as well as forms that must be returned to the Early Childhood Office by Tuesday, August 20th.
Please complete/hand in one form per child:
- Medical Forms from your physician: Health Form 3040 and Immunization Form 680. All students must have current medical forms on file before the first day of school. If we have student forms in our file, parents will receive a letter one month prior to the expiration date on the current forms and must submit updated forms at that time. If our current records indicate that your child’s forms are expiring shortly or have expired, this information was sent to you in the mail.
