    Sharing of Information with the School District: We will not share any of your health information with school officials and school officials will not share any of your health information with the School Health Center. However, you may find it convenient if you give us permission to give or exchange records with school officials so that a student’s school required health records are updated and the School Health Center has accurate and complete physicals and immunization information. For example, students entering Kindergarten, 6th grade, and 9th grade must have completed school physicals with updated immunization information before classes can be attended. Students involved in sports must have a sports physical on file to participate in practices or games.

    If you would like for the School Health Center to give or exchange information with the school, please complete the section at the end of this form. You do not have to sign this release. If you do sign the release, the School Health Center will release information until the student leaves the school district or until you revoke or withdraw your permission. To withdraw your permission, you must send a request to: HIPAA Officer, Shawnee Health Service, 109 California Street, P.O. Box 577, Carterville, Illinois 62918-0577
