School Entrance Requirements:
All preschool, kindergarten, and new to the county students are required to submit a Virginia School Entrance Health (Physical) Form and immunization record completed by a licensed provider prior to the first day of school. School entrance physicals must be completed within one year of entry. This means that for the 2020-2021 school year, physicals must be completed between September 8, 2019 and September 7, 2020. This is in accordance with the Virginia Department of Education school entrance requirements and is a requirement for both in person and virtual schooling within the county. Due to the holiday weekend, these records must be provided to the school nurse by Friday, September 4, 2020 at 4:00 pm in order to begin classes on the first day of school, Tuesday, September 8, 2020. Blank copies of the School Entrance Health form (and other related forms) that can be provided to your child's health care provider are linked below.
