Health Policy and Insurance
Health Program
Illinois state law requires a complete medical physical,
and recommends a dental exam, for children entering
kindergarten and fifth grade. Annual hearing and
vision tests are administered at school. Parents are
notified if results indicate the need for a more
complete examination.
Each year a nurse from the DuPage County Health Department is assigned to Saint Isaac Jogues to review student records and advise the administration.
We will not dispense medication to students without the express written consent and direction of a physician.
Student Insurance
During the first part of each school year, parents
and students are provided information and
recommendations on accident insurance. The school
does not provide insurance but strongly advises that
parents – either through their own personal insurance
or a separate school policy – obtain coverage for
each attending child.
For children involved in school athletics, accident coverage is imperative and required.
