    2. Submit the history form(s) to your child's healthcare provider prior to the examination. 
    3. After performing the examination, the healthcare provider needs to completed and signed both the physical examination page and the clearance page. 
    4. Once both forms have been completed, submitted them along with the history form(s) to the Avon School Health Office.
    5. The private physical examination forms need to be cleared by the school physician prior to participation.
