Please update the emergency card whenever addresses, telephone numbers, etc., are changed during the school year. Students requiring medication at school must have a written order from the family physician which identifies type, dosage, time of administration, the purpose of the medication and side effects. The medication should be in the original container identified by the pharmacy. Medication must be hand delivered to a school authority by an adult. If medication is to be returned, it must be picked up by an adult.
Documentation is required to be maintained by the school nurse.
This will reduce the risk of students from being severely injured by falling or making contact with another student. Physical Education Excuse Procedure Physical Education excuses can be given for two days to a week with a parent's note, at the School Nurse's discretion. Doctor's note must be obtained if it exceeds the specified time. A Physical Education excuse must be renewed each school year.
