Re: Questions about ECD in school

[Guest guest]

Hi Paige, great to hear from you again!

I don't remember being asked for medical info other than a vaccine

report the day before he even entered school. They may have had me

fill out a standard medical form but nothing intrusive that would

give them rights to medical info without my permission.

Good luck!

I was asked to have my daughters' medical information released. I

did because I thought it might help my daughters get the best help.

I don't think it helped, but I do think it didn't hurt.
