  • From Don Wilson, President of the Board of Trustees

    Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year! I am privileged to serve as Board Chair of Portledge School. For those who don’t know me, my wife and three children have been part of the Portledge community for 10 years. Our oldest daughter graduated last year with the Class of 2023 and is officially an alumna of this great institution that helped her be the best she can be. We can confidently state that our son, who is in the Upper School, and our youngest daughter, who is in the Lower School, are on the same trajectory.

  • Magnus Health Portal

    Portledge School uses Magnus Health as its Student Medical Record (SMR) database. With this web-based system, we can provide secure and continuous access to your child’s health record, including making updates as needed. As parents and guardians, you and our nurses will have access to medical information. Administrators, teachers, and coaches will have limited access to information that would be necessary during a medical emergency.
     
    All forms must be submitted before the start of school
    Parents and guardians of students new to Portledge School must submit a New York State Medical Examination form (physical) and immunization records. Parents and guardians of returning students will be informed individually when physicals and immunization updates are required. All parents and guardians must also complete a few electronic forms to inform our nurses about any medical conditions your child may have. The good news is that you will not have to repeat this work next school year: the data is securely stored, so going forward, you will simply update any records as needed.  
     
    Athletics
    All interscholastic athletes must have a New York State Medical Examination form (physical) on file that is less than one year old and complete a Sports Health Update Form (SHUF) within 30 days of preseason, August 21, 2023.
     
    How to log in
    To access the Magnus Health account, log in to the myPortledge portal, click on Resources, then the Magnus Health link tile. While in Magnus, please click “Fill it out” to complete the forms that are due.  Please take note of the due dates of valid requirements.
     
    Questions or Problems
