Health Room:  

An area has been prepared for children who become ill or injured while at school.  Should it be necessary to contact you regarding a sick or injured child, we ask that you come to the school immediately, as we do not have full-time personnel to staff the Health Room.  Families are notified immediately of serious injury or sudden illnesses that occur during school hours.  For this reason, it is imperative that families keep the Emergency Card information up-to-date.  Any change in phone numbers, alternate contact persons, addresses, doctors, etc. must be communicated to the office, in writing, when change occur. If it is impossible to reach a parent or responsible person, the school reserves the right to select emergency care providers.  No liability would attach to such decision in the event parents cannot be reached.  Any expenses incurred will be borne by the child’s family.  The school will not be responsible for anything that may happen as a result of false information given to the school. 

If your child has allergies, or any other condition necessitating special arrangements, this must be noted on the emergency card.  

We also ask that you provide your current telephone number and work number on the           emergency card kept in the Health Room. 

Immunizations: 

Updated immunizations are required for each student. Lack of proper immunizations may necessitate exclusion from school.

Hearing-Vision Screening:  

These services are arranged annually.

Scoliosis Testing: 

This screening of the spinal area is provided for students in Grades 7 and 8.

Physical or Waiver:  

Students in Grade 1 must have a completed physical form or waiver on file.  If this is not provided by the specified deadline, those children may be excluded from school.

Medications: 

If a child must have medication during a school day, the following procedure is followed:

• A release from the doctor must be      

presented which states the nature of the 

medication.

• The day’s dosage must be sealed,         

labeled, and have the child’s name 

attached to the bottle.  All medications 

must be kept in the Health Room.

•  The child is to come to the Health Room

for his/her medication (except in situations that require a student to carry an inhaler prescribed by a licensed physician as necessary).
