2. To make a nutrition plan for when in classes
3. To obtain immunization updates
4. To assess whether there are any health problems that could interfere with the student's performance

Rationale:
1. If the student has any health problems, or needs birth-control or nutrition education, this would have been determined in questioning by the school nurse.
2. If the student has any health problems, or needs birth-control or nutrition education, this would have been determined in questioning by the school nurse.

Most parents do not follow through with the elective boosters or vaccines, since they are not required. The student will be exposed to many new people, and might be in a different living environment, so there are immunizations to protect her.
