Once clearances are on file with the General McLane School District they are valid for five (5) years from the date on which they were obtained.
TB test results must be administered within three months prior to the date the district receives the form.
Please be advised it can take up to 2-3 weeks to receive results for all clearances.

Submit Clearances Appropriately
These items may be dropped off or mailed directly to your student’s building’s front office or sent directly to the Education Center (dropped off or mailed): 11771 Edinboro Road, Edinboro, PA 16412.
Please do not send in these clearances to your student’s teacher, as specific individuals need state-mandated training to handle clearances.
