Parent Consent Form – Health & Counseling Services
A new state law requires Snyder ISD to have parent or guardian consent before our nurses or counseling staff can provide services to your child.
We ask all families to complete the consent form as soon as possible. This allows us to continue providing the same care and support your child has always received. Without your consent, our staff will only be able to help in life-threatening emergencies.
