School Nurse
Students must be healthy to be educated and educated to be healthy!
Below you will find important issues and helpful links to ensure your child's health and safety while they are in school. Communication with the school nurse is essential in addressing your child's personal health needs so they can come to school and stay in school. Please inform the school nurse of any allergies, surgeries, accidents, injuries, or significant health history that your child might have. Please update the school nurse of any new health concerns during the summer months or which may occur during the school year.
Every student entering Christ the King HS is required to have a complete physical examination including an eye exam.

Incoming freshman must submit a notarized emergency card to the school by August 1, 2018.

Meningitis Requirements for Seniors
All seniors must have the Meningitis Vaccine before the 2018/2019 school year starts. A letter was sent home at the end of the school year. If your child has not yet received this vaccine on or after their 16th birthday, they must see a physician to administer this vaccine. Please send in documentation to the school nurse before the fist day of senior year or your child will be excluded from attending school until this requirement had been met. If you are not sure if your child has the proper documentation on file, please contact the school nurse.
All students requiring medication to be taken in school, prescription or over the counter must have a Medication Permission Request Form completed and signed by the prescribing practitioner and a parent/guardian.
