  • 9th Grade Requirements – The Illinois Department of Public Health requires all students entering 9th grade to provide proof of an IL School Physical, up-to-date Immunization Record, and Dental Exam. A packet with these documents will be going home today. Please fill out the parent section of the physical before going to the doctor. It is your responsibility to remind your physician to bring your child’s immunizations up to date. Any required vaccine may be obtained from your physician or Lee County Health Department at 815-284-3371. A dental exam is required by May 1st, 2024. Physical examination and up to date Immunization Records must be completed and turned into the school nurse’s office by the first day of school, to avoid exclusion from school and school related activities. There is also an eye exam sheet in the packet, however, that is not a requirement for 9th grade students. If you have any questions, please contact your school nurse. A sports physical DOES NOT qualify as a school physical.
