As of July 1, 2005, a new State of Illinois law went into effect requiring that all students in Kindergarten, second and sixth grades have a Dental exam performed by a licensed dentist. For this school year (2005-06), the exam must be performed sometime after November 15, 2004, and before May 15, 2006.
Following your child’s exam, please have your dentist fill out the form required by the State and return it to the Health Office of his/her school no later than May 15, 2006. Exam forms are available by linking to the Dental Examination Record from this site.
In addition, if you need a referral to find a dentist or financial assistance to obtain your child’s exam, please contact your school’s Health Office or The Will County Community Health Center Dental Clinic at (815) 774-7300.
A waiver for the dental exam can be obtained by accessing these links (Dental waiver- English or Dental waiver- Spanish)
