Health Regulations
All entering students must be immunized to be admitted as a student in H. Frank Carey High School. Please be advised that section 903 of the New York Education Law requires that all seventh and tenth grade students and all new entrants have a physical examination within the first 30 days of school.

Sports Physicals
Anyone who plays a sport must hand in a physical form from his/her private physician to the school nurse. One month before the sport begins, the Long Island Jewish School Doctor will then review the physical and approve it.

Yearly Screenings
It is mandated by New York State that every student be screened by the school nurse for height, weight, vision, scoliosis and hearing. The screening will not be necessary if the student submits a physical by his/her private physician.

Contact
If you would like to contact the school nurse, you can do so by calling [516] 539-9449 or by faxing to the main office at (516) 538-1791.
