Step 1: Collection of Student Information

This form is going to take some time to complete. 
It includes a full health history to be collected for the child who will be entering school. Please have all of your child's information handy before you sit down to complete this form and set aside 30 minutes to fill it out. 

You can not go back and finish the form at a later time, you would have to start all over again.
We have transitioned from the old paper process to eliminate the need for parents to write the same information on several forms.
