Our nurse, Sue Bast, is here to help your child should he/she become ill or injured. Please read the Health Office Brochure which explains all health guidelines. Some important information is summarized below:
Medication: Students may not carry or administer medication themselves. Prescription medication must be in the original container with a current prescription label with written permission from the parent to administer. Over- the-counter medications will not be stocked by the nurse. If your child needs medication, call the nurse.
PE Excuses: If a child is ill or injured, a note from the parent will excuse him/ her from active participation. Any illness or injury requiring that a student be out for more than three days, will require a doctor’s excuse.
Emergency Cards: Each student must have a current emergency card completed by the parent on file by the first week of school each year. Any changes must be noted and returned to the school promptly. Please make sure that there are two emergency contacts if parents cannot be reached during the school day.
New Students: You will need the following information when registering: document of immunization, emergency contact information including home, work, cell phone numbers and pager numbers and any documents for current health problems.
Accident Insurance is available
through the school. The school does not carry medical insurance on students
for accidents that may happen on school property.
