Health Clinic

The mission of the School Health Bureau is to provide students and their families with preventive and early intervention services that enable the student to learn to the best of his or her potential.

• Middle and High Schools are staffed with both a School Health Aide and a Public Health Nurse (PHN).
• Elementary Schools are staffed with a School Health Aide at each site, while Public Health Nurses cover two elementary schools.

Per the Code of Virginia (§ 22.1-271.2. Immunization requirements (virginia.gov) and § 22.1-270. Preschool physical examinations (virginia.gov)), students must meet school health entry requirements. School health staff will be following up with parents of students who are missing required vaccines and physical examinations.

More information about school health entry requirements is available here.
