Parents/ Guardians of 10th grade students,

The Massachusetts Department of Public Health requires that student health records are updated every 4 years and current copies of their physical exams are kept on file in the school’s health office. This means we need to receive a copy of your 10th grade student’s most recent physical exam (within the last 12 months) and immunizations. If your child is playing a sport and you have submitted this information recently to the athletic office, he/she should be all set. If your child does not have an exam scheduled until the summer, please let us know and then submit a copy to the school as soon as the exam is completed. All physical exams should be submitted by August 31, 2013.

If you do not have your own doctor, you can get a free regular physical exam and immunizations at the Lydia Pinkham Clinic on Thursdays from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. No appointment is necessary and the clinic is located at:
