Welcome to the Health Office at Flagstaff Academy

The Flagstaff Academy Health Office provides basic first aid to students, administers medication, and enacts emergency response care for severe allergies, asthma, diabetes, and seizures. The Health Office also implements health care plan interventions and informs teachers of student health needs. The Health Office tracks student immunization records and coordinates state mandated hearing and vision.
