Health Information

Welcome to Arrowhead. My name is Katie Thompson and I am the RN. If you have any health questions or concerns, please give me a call at 369-3630. Arrowhead has a health room at each campus. I staff the south campus all day and aide Paula Nordwig staffs the north campus. 

Students are not allowed to carry any over-the-counter or prescription medications at AHS. All medications are dispensed from the health room after the medication forms are completed, which can be printed below.  The only exception is after their physician fills out an individual health plan for inhalers, EPI-Pens, and insulin pens, the forms can be printed below.

Forms required for all freshman and new students: 

• Immunization Record –  Required by the State of Wisconsin - State statute ss.252.04 and 120.12. (16). Please fill out completely or attach a copy of the student's immunizations from their physician's office and sign. The State of Wisconsin has added two immunizations that are required before freshman and senior year.
  • TdaP (tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis) vaccine. The only exception is if the student received a tetanus containing vaccine (e.g. Td vaccine) within 5 years of entering the 9th and 12th grade.  That student is considered compliant and a TdaP booster dose is not required.
  • Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine: A second dose will be required for students entering 12th grade or documentation of the year they had chickenpox disease

• Physicals
  • Physicals for students who are not participating in sports are no longer required. 
  • If your child will participate in sports, a green WIAA physical card will be required. Take the form (the green physical card) to the doctor for signature. Forms will be distributed and collected through the Arrowhead Activities Office.

• Over The Counter Medication Consent Form - This form is required for students to receive any medication from the health room. Three medications are stocked in the health room: acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil), and diphenhydramine hydrochloride (generic Benadryl). All other medications must be brought and stored in the health room. 

Prescription Medication Authorization

Prescription Medication Consent Form - Required only if prescription medication will be administered at AHS.  This form must be completed by the parents and signed by the prescibing physician every year that daily medications will be administered at AHS. This form is also necessary for administation of temporary prescriptions such as antibiotics, pain medications, etc.
