School Health

School health services promote health through prevention, early intervention, and treatment or referral for acute or chronic health problems of students in the Taylor County School District. Each school is staffed to provide services to a steady flow of students in the clinic for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to:

  • Administration of medications 
  • Administration of health screenings (scoliosis, hearing, vision, height and weight)
  • Emergency first aid treatment
  • Management of complex or chronic health conditions 
  • Health education 
  • Monitoring of state immunization and school health compliance 

Each clinic is staffed by professionally trained health aides and nurses to advocate for children's health and safety within the educational setting. 

Immunizations are required for school attendance. For specifics please review the School Entry Requirements. More information can be found on the Taylor County School District website.
