Health Office

In order for the office to administer medication (prescription OR over-the-counter), we must have the form provided below signed by the parent and physician with specific instructions. 

Authorization for Any Medication Taken During School Hours

Students returning to school with casts, crutches, wheelchair, stitches, elastic bandages, or slings as a result of an accident or injury must provide a physician’s verification of permission to return to school and may not participate in P.E., noontime activities, recess, or be on the playground before or after school until written release by a physician is received.    

Re-Admission After Accident/Injury

 Lice

 If you discover a lice infestation, please contact the school office immediately. All information is confidential, however, it is imperative that we inform you of the proper procedures for treatment and for readmission to school. In recent years lice has become very resistant to customary treatments. A child must be “nit free” to return to school. The shampoos will not kill all the nits and the combs will not remove all of them. Hair must be sectioned off and the nits pulled out with the fingernails. If this is not done, reinfestation will occur. 

With communication and cooperation we can, hopefully, keep the problem to a minimum. Thank you for your help.
