Don’t forget that we can take care of many medical and dental needs here at school through our partnership with Greater Portland Health. Students can also receive same-day appointments for more urgent and unexpected needs during their school day, such as severe cold symptoms, tests for strep throat, a script for antibiotics, and severe asthma and allergies. This saves parents and caregivers time away from work by not having to schedule and take children to appointments, and it ensures students are not having to miss as much school. Enrolling with this school-based health center means you can still keep your doctor or dentist if you choose, and any services provided here can be communicated back to their primary doctor or dentist. If you are interested in enrolling, please fill out this form. Or, feel free to reach out to Michaela, our Community Health Worker, at mschwartz@greaterportlandhealth.org with any questions.
