207. No person may hold an engagement in a public school unless he produces, every year:(1) a physician’s certificate stating that he suffers from no infirmity or disease which renders him unfit to occupy the employment he holds;
(2) a certificate from a phthisiologist attesting that a clinical and radiological pulmonary examination shows that such person is free from tubercular disease.
Such examination must be made within two months following the engagement or appointment. In the case of re-engagement, the radiological examination shall not be required unless the commissioners exact it.
If it be proved by a medical certificate that a person holding an employment in a public school is suffering from tubercular disease, such person must immediately cease to perform his duties.
