R. Hunter Biden,

Good Afternoon

Please do not respond to this message.  This is just a friendly reminder as we begin to prepare for the 2015-2016 school year. Please ensure that you have submitted all required health forms before preseason or the first day of school (whichever comes first). In order to check the status of the health forms via Magnus Health sign into the Parent Portal and click on the link Update Student Health Information.

Physical Examinations and Immunizations Required for Attendance

All health-related forms must be submitted online via Magnus Health. No paper health forms will be accepted at the School.

Annual Physical Exams: All students are required to have an annual physical exam during the 12-month period immediately preceding the first day of the school year. You will receive an automated email reminder directly from Magnus Health 6 weeks prior to the expiration of the physical examination.   A DC Universal Health Certificate must be completed and signed by a physician or advanced practice nurse and submitted to the School via Magnus Health.  (Sign into the Parent Portal and click on the link Update Student Health Information). Parents will be given both oral and written notice if they fail to provide the required form. If after 30 days it has not been submitted, the public health authorities will be notified.

In addition to submission of the DC Universal Health Certificate as described above (12-months prior to first day of school), in order to participate in all school and physical activities, students must update the Vital Health Record and the Consent to Treat Form.

If you find that you will not be able to furnish the School with an updated Health Certificate by the expiration date of the last physical examination, you may have the health care practitioner write a note indicating that your child “is cleared to participate in physical and other school related activities until next physical exam scheduled on….” This note will suffice until that scheduled physical exam is completed and should be submitted via Magnus Health.

Immunizations:  In accordance with DC law, all students must submit documentation that they have been vaccinated against specific illnesses before the school year begins.  Tdap, Meningitis and HPV immunizations are required by the D.C. Department of Health for students 11 years and older entering 6th through 12th grades.

No student will be allowed to attend School without a Certificate of Immunization unless the student has been exempted in accordance with law. In order for a student to be exempted from providing certification of immunization, parents must submit a completed religious or medical exemption form on an annual basis to Magnus Health, via the parent portal on the SFS website.
