Student Health
Children should be in good physical health before they attend school. All cold symptoms should be regarded as contagious (sneezing, sore throat, runny nose, cough, headache, temperature) and your child should remain at home. Any child with a rash, fever, vomiting, temperature, or general malaise should remain at home for 24 hours of observation.
*** Please do not send your child to school if they have a fever greater than 100 or if they have vomited within the past 24 hours.
Water bottles are important to keep your child hydrated during the school day. Please send one with your child each day.
You may provide any written health updates to the nurse or you may call me @ 424 5931 ext. 1108 anytime.
Please remember all medications for students must be brought in by a parent or guardian. They should be accompanied by a Doctor's order for administration in school along with a signed parent/guardian form as well.
If your child requires medication, click below to print the required form:

***Please use the absentee line or email address to report your child’s absence EACH DAY, even if you speak with the nurse .
You may call 424-5931 Ext. 2 or email [email protected] if your child will be absent or tardy. Whichever method you use, please leave the following information: Your child’s first and last name, the teacher’s name and the reason for being tardy or absent.
***All immunization records, physicals and health forms, sent to the school, should have a signature on them and should come from the practitioner. If your child receives updated immunizations, PLEASE provide them to the nurse for their health records.
***If your child has an injury requiring crutches or immobilization of an arm or leg, please call the nurse and I will provide assistance to the child. Any absences from PE and gym should have written documentation from your child's medical provider.
