Healthpoint Family Care at LES
We are pleased to announce that the Dayton Healthpoint Family Care School Based Health Center at Lincoln Elementary School will be open on August 7th, 10th and 15th , from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. If your child needs updated immunizations, school physicals, or well care visits, we will be available. The SBHC also provides sports physicals for all ages.

The Commonwealth of Kentucky requires all students entering school for the first time (Preschool or Kindergarten) and all incoming sixth graders to have updated immunization certificates and physical examinations prior to the first day of school. If your child will be enrolling in Dayton Schools from another state, they will need a current Kentucky Immunization certificate and school physical prior to starting school.

Please contact Gina Byrd, Family Resource Center Director, at 292-7492 to schedule your appointment. Appointments will be filled on a first come, first served basis. 2017-18 SBHC enrollment packets will be available in the office of Lincoln Elementary. Parents or guardians must fill out the packet prior to your appointment.
