Health Forms

Step 2

You will now be logged into the August Schools system so you can access and print all required forms (New Jersey state pre-participation physical form, tuberculosis screening form and immunization form) and any other forms that may apply to your child (see below). Bring these printed forms to your healthcare provider. The healthcare provider must sign, date and provide an office stamp where indicated. The first time you log into the August Schools system, you will be taken to an information screen. If this is your first time logging into August Schools, please click here for instructions. Once the forms are completed, go back into the Parent Portal, select the August Schools Forms section once again, and upload the documents so they will be filed directly into August Schools. If a document has multiple pages (such as the physical file), please upload all pages together as one file.

Step 3

Establish an account with Acme Pharmacy. This is important, even if your child does not take daily medications. In the event your child becomes ill or needs over-the-counter medications or prescriptions during the academic year, the Health Center will obtain both over-the-counter and prescription medications for your child from Acme Pharmacy, which is located a few miles from campus.

Acme Pharmacy
(908) 362-1799
152 NJ-94
Blairstown, NJ 07825

The pharmacy will not dispense any medication without prior payment.

If your child takes multiple medications daily we encourage you to find a pharmacy who will package the medications for daily use. All controlled medications must be blister packed.

It is very important to keep your payment information current, as the pharmacy will not be able to dispense any medications/supplies without payment. We do not want your child to have to wait for medication until someone at the pharmacy reaches you. All prescriptions for controlled substances must be blister packed; no exceptions.
In the event you choose to use a different pharmacy, please note the following: All prescriptions must be purchased from a United States pharmacy and remain in the original labeled container from that pharmacy. International students taking prescription medication may require assistance with this policy and should contact the health center for prescription support at healthcenter@blair.edu.
If you choose to use a different pharmacy, all controlled substances must be blister packed by the pharmacy; there will be NO EXCEPTIONS.
A Medication Order Form must be completed by a licensed prescriber for each medication and with any subsequent order changes. This form can be obtained from the health center and the Magnus website. This form is legally required for all prescription medications your child may be taking before they can be dispensed.

- The physical must be current and must occur between June 1 and August 1, 2024. When you schedule your child’s sports physical, please verify that the healthcare provider who will perform the exam has completed the Student-Athlete Cardiac Assessment professional development module (PD module). If the healthcare provider has not completed this module, we will not be able to accept your child’s physical. As of June 16, this is a New Jersey state requirement. NJ S2518 is currently pending Assembly Education Committee review. Once it passes, we will modify the requirements to be in compliance with New Jersey state law.

Immunization Form*
- All students must meet the New Jersey immunization requirements for Tdap, MMR, hepatitis B, polio, varicella, DTaP and meningococcal ACYW as outlined on the Blair immunization form. Please note we will be holding a flu clinic this fall provided by Acme Pharmacy.
