Notes from the Nurse
- District Policy states, “Students must be symptom free (without medication) from communicable illnesses for 24 hours before returning to school.” This includes fever, vomiting, and diarrhea.
- We do not have any medications for congestion, allergies, diarrhea, cramps, coughing, sneezing, or pain. If your child is having symptoms at home in the morning, it is not likely that s/he will just get better. Try to address the problem before your child comes to school, and do everything you can to get her/him to eat breakfast.
- Injuries and illness that take place outside of school hours should be evaluated by your personal medical provider. If you question whether something is serious enough to require a doctor visit, it probably is.
- Provide up to date information about your child’s medical conditions and any medications s/he takes. Your openness about your child’s medical conditions will help me to make good judgments and determinations about her/his care. Please contact me directly about any changes in your child’s health.
