ENROLLMENT FORM AND EMERGENCY INFORMATION It is important for us to reach you if your child is ill or injured at school. Please complete the Annual Health Update Form and enrollment form from school, listing parent’s name with work and home phone numbers, along with two local emergency contacts. Call your child’s school with any changes throughout the school year. HEALTH AND SCREENING PROGRAMS Physical Examinations: It is recommended that Kindergarten students have physical, dental and vision examinations prior to school entrance.

Vision Screening: School District Nurses, along with parent volunteers, provide a vision screening program at your child’s school for students in Pre-school, Kindergarten, 1, 3 and 5.

IMMUNIZATIONS “IT’S THE LAW” s.252.04 Wis. Stats.

This law requires students through grade 12 to be immunized according to their age/grade by the beginning of the school year.

Immunization is a shared responsibility:

Parents are required to have their children immunized on schedule and keep accurate records. If a student is unable to receive

immunizations for medical, religious or personal conviction reasons, a waiver must be signed and given to the school.

Schools are required to keep records and review annually the Immunization Law.

When students do not meet the requirements of the law, parents are notified by a legal notice.

Helpful Hints:

Keep a copy of your child’s immunization record. Notify your child’s school each time your child receives an immunization.

Call your school office if you have any questions.

Wisconsin Optometric Association Parent’s Guide to Good Vision and Healthy Eyes!

Vision Facts

� 80% of all learning during a child’s first 12 years of life is obtained through vision. � Vision disorders are the 4th most common disability in the United States and the most

prevalent handicapping condition in childhood.

� 8 to 12 million school age children are at risk from undetected vision impairments The bottom line is: Your child’s ability to see clearly in school will have an enormous impact on their ability to learn. As parents, you can ensure that your child’s academic performance is maximized from the beginning of their education career by having their eyes tested. Undiagnosed and, therefore, untreated vision problems among our children represent one of the most serious, yet overlooked, health issues facing our nation. Under the “Clear Vision, Bright Future” Initiative, Wisconsin optometrists have partnered with parents, school district administrators, school nurses and other health providers to encourage students to receive the eye health and vision care they need. This Initiative provides the opportunity not only to enhance the academic future of your child, but also to provide a strong foundation for those who may be at-risk for visual learning problems. Parents & Teachers-Please do not assume that a child has healthy eyes and no problems seeing in school. That assumption could risk the child’s future eye health and school achievement. Have their eyes examined. Tips for parents scheduling comprehensive eye exams for their children:

1. Schedule the exam early in the day, at least 3-4 months before school starts 2. Let your child know that there won’t be any shot s involved 3. Make a game of it; practice looking at pictures and making it fun

Wisconsin Law A current Wisconsin law, Statute Chapter 118.135 states: Each school board shall request each pupil entering kindergarten to provide evidence that the pupil has had his or her eyes examined by an optometrist or evaluated by a physician. Financial Assistance for Eye Exams Many children in Wisconsin do not have insurance coverage for eye examinations. Member doctors of the Wisconsin Optometric Association (WOA) provide free eye examinations for children who do not have insurance and who cannot afford such care. Please contact the WOA’s VISION USA Program at (877) 435-2020 to reque st an application form or for more information regarding this special program.
