173 Neb. Admin. Code, ch. 7, § 009
In accordance with Neb. Rev. Stat. § 79-214, the school board of any school district, before admitting a child, shall require evidence of the following:
Physical examination by a physician, physician assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse-nurse practitioner within the six months prior to the entrance of a child into the beginner grade and the seventh grade, or in the case of a transfer from out of state, to any other grade of the local school, is required. Either a completed, signed, and dated physical exam report, or a printed or typewritten form signed by a qualified examiner indicating that a physical examination was administered on a specific date within the previous six-month period on a specifically named individual, provided to the school by the parent/guardian, constitutes sufficient evidence of compliance.
Visual evaluation by a physician, a physician assistant, an advanced practice registered nurse-nurse practitioner, or an optometrist within six months prior to the entrance of a child into the beginner grade or, in the case of transfer from out of state, to any other grade of the local school, is required. The visual evaluation must consist of testing for amblyopia, strabismus, and internal and external eye health, with testing sufficient to determine visual acuity. The visual evaluation report inclusive at a minimum of the specific tests named above, signed and dated by the qualified examiner, provided to the school by the parent/guardian constitutes sufficient evidence of compliance.
At the time a parent/guardian is notified of the requirements for physical examination and visual evaluation for school entry, that parent/guardian must also be notified of his or her right to submit a written statement refusing such examination or evaluation.
No such physical examination or visual evaluation as described in 7-009.01 and 7-009.02 is required of the student whose parent/guardian submits a written statement of objection to the school.
