Good health is important to job performance. Employees will present evidence of good health, in the form of a physical examination report, prior to their employment with the School District.  The form will indicate the employee is able to perform the duties, with or without reasonable accommodation, for which the employee was hired, and must be returned prior to the performance of duties.  Employees whose physical or mental health, in the judgment of the administration, may be in doubt will submit to additional examinations, when requested to do so, at the expense of the School District.

School bus drivers will present evidence of good health as required by law in the form of a DOT physical examination report.

The cost of bus driver renewal physicals will be paid by the School District up to a maximum of $80.00.

The District will comply with occupational safety and health requirements as applicable to its employees in accordance with law.
