Medications at School:
All medications should be turned in to the main office or the nurse's office. Medicine must be in the original container, whether it is over-the-counter medicine or prescription medicine. Before we can give any medication to a student at school, we must have a medication permission form signed by the parent or guardian. There forms are sent out at the first of school with other papers that need to be signed by the parent or guardian. Children should NEVER carry medicine with them at school, unless it is an asthma inhaler prescribed by the doctor to be carried at school. Diabetic students are also allowed to carry their diabetic equipment with them at school.
Head Lice:
Children are allowed to attend school if there are no live lice present. If live lice are present, then they must be treated with a lice killing shampoo at home. A lice comb may be used to help keep the lice out of the child's hair. We do not have a no-nit policy.
Illness or Injury at School:
If your child becomes ill or injured at school, and it is minor, we will take care of it at school. If it is serious, we will try to contact the parent/guardian or someone listed as an emergency contact on the child's enrollment forms. Please be certain you have listed several contacts/phone numbers so someone responsible for the child can come to the school to pick up your child and take him/her to the doctor, if necessary.
Other Illness:
If your child has an illness that you want us to know about, please feel free to call us.
