[AS] Important: Ministry of Health Student Health Checks
Elisia Brodeur
Dear SSIS Parents,
Your child’s health and safety are always our top priorities. In accordance with the Ministry of Health’s Joint Circular No. 13/2016/TTLT-BYT-BGDDT, Part 3 – Health Specialty Examination, all students are required to complete regular health checks. These checks help us identify potential health concerns and ensure students are safe during school events, field trips, and sports activities.
After the winter break, we will conduct student health checks on campus. Each check will include height, weight, and BMI measurements.
Health Check Dates:
- Elementary School: January 12, 13, and 14
- Middle School: February 5 and 6
- High School: February 2 and 3
Thank you for your cooperation in supporting your child’s health and well-being.
Sincerely,
Kerry Brint
Health Office Manager
