Student Observation and Student Teacher Clinical Requirements
All full-time Student Teacher candidates who wish to complete the clinical requirements included in the Pennsylvania Department of Education Form 338G at the Student Health Center must have a health form, signed by a licensed health care provider, on file that includes the following:
Physical examination
Required and recommended immunizations
Proof of health insurance
Proof of meningitis vaccination or signed waiver
The Pennsylvania Department of Education Form 338G will not be released to the student until all these criteria are met.
Mantoux Test
For Student Teacher observations, a Mantoux test will be performed on any student as a professional courtesy for a fee of $15. Students who have not met all of the health services requirements are asked to sign a treatment waiver, and must follow up with their private health care provider if the Mantoux test is positive. TB tests are available at the Student Health Center from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. TB tests must be read within 48 to 72 hours. If the student does not return in a timely manner for the test read, it will be necessary to repeat the TB test for an additional fee.
