Steps to make use of this service

If you would like your child to receive medical services at Ranger Clinic, please complete and sign the consent form and return to the main office at Park High School. Students cannot be seen in the health clinic until a signed consent form has been returned. Ranger Clinic bills private insurance, Medicaid, and Healthy Montana Kids. No child is denied services due to inability to pay. If you have a family medical provider, you can still use the Ranger Clinic. You may find it convenient for your child to get medical care at Ranger Clinic if they get sick or injured at school.
