Step 2: Proof of physical

NY State requires proof of a physical within the last 12 months. If the school nurse or athletic department does not have a current physical on file, you need to:

a. Take a picture of your physical and email that picture to [email protected] (you may have to pick it up from your doctor’s office – they will not email me directly), OR

b. Have your doctor fax proof of a physical to 757-2306 OR

c. Print the form (attached below in two formats) and bring it to your doctor to fill out.

Step 3: Return the forms to Vestal High School Guidance Department

After you have filled out the application, you may:

1. Mail it to the school at:
Vestal High School Guidance Department
Attn: Working Permits
205 Woodlawn Dr
Vestal, NY 13850

2. Take clear pictures of the application/physical forms and email them to Miss Cass.

3. Arrange to drop it off by calling 757-2214 (There are limited times to drop it off, so you
must call first).

Step 4:

Once the AT-17 application and the physical have been verified, Miss Cass will complete the working card. This may take a few days if we are waiting for a physical. It will be mailed by USPS mail to the family’s address as indicated in the Google Form.
