have a School Health Advisory Board comprised of no more than 20 community 
representatives.  Each School Health Advisory Board also is required to submit an 
annual report on the status and needs of student health in the school division to 
any relevant school, the school board, the Virginia Department of Health, and the 
Virginia Department of Education.

Please submit two copies of the completed Annual Report Form to the Department of 
Education by July 1, 2000, to:
