Mandated Screenings Performed at School

During the school year, we will assess your child's height and weight and screen their vision. In addition, a hearing screening will be given to 11th graders.  A referral will be sent home if further evaluation is recommended for these screenings. 

If your child submits a PIAA sports physical or private physician physical to our office, this screening information may also be gathered from these forms.

Location: The Health Room is located on the first floor next to the main office (A-4)

Times: 7:55 am – 2:55 pm. The office is open to all students and staff of PAHS. All students must have a pass for admission to the nurse’s office. Exceptions are made in emergency situations. 

All students leaving the building due to illness MUST be dismissed through the nurse’s office. When a student is sent home an Illness Dismissal and Readmittance Form is sent with them to be signed by a parent/guardian and returned to the Attendance Office. Students are to sign out with the Front Desk prior to leaving the building. Transportation is the responsibility of a parent/guardian.

Our goal as school nurses is to help students incorporate healthy behaviors and achieve optimal health status, which enhances their ability to learn. Our nursing interventions encourage student responsibility and independence in becoming healthy adults.
