 Welcome to the 2009 - 2010 school year!
Our goal is to bring you updated health information as it pertains to children attending the Salem Public Schools. Each web page is designed to give you information for elementary, middle and high schools. You may download forms for medication, physicals and health histories.
The immunization law is required to be followed by all school districts throughout the State of Massachusetts. By doing this we provide each child a healthy school environment.
Our medication policy is set by the recommendations of the Department of Public Health. Please take a moment to read the policy to understand what is required if your child needs medication during the school day (this policy covers prescription and over the counter medication).
