Any student with noted health conditions on the health portion of Infosnap/Health Assessment forms will require verification/documentation from their physician prior to the development or continuation of a health care plan. Please provide the documentation to your child's school nurse as soon as possible, preferably prior to the student's first day of school. 

• A physician's note will be required in order to confirm students' medical diagnosis.
• This note will NOT be required on an annual basis; however, any medical updates on a student's condition should be provided to the school nurse annually. 
• Any student for whom we do not receive a medical diagnosis confirmation from the physician, will be placed in a 'disabled mode' in INOW. 
• All students prescribed daily and/or 'as needed' medication are already required to submit updated physician orders each school year; therefore, these students will NOT require additional medical documentation.
