The school has a registered nurse on staff permanently. The school nurse will not administer any medicine to students without written authorization and instructions from parents.  

In case of an illness or injury, the school nurse will call the parents, inform them of their child’s situation, and may ask the parents to pick up the student at school.  If the nurse cannot contact the student’s parents, she will proceed to contact the Emergency Contact Person; if this fails and the situation calls for it, the school will arrange for transportation to the nearest hospital.

In order to maintain a healthy environment for our school community parents are requested not to send students to school when they have a contagious illness.  Those students sent to school with a contagious illness will be sent home.

It is the parents’ responsibility to submit an up to date Health Form to the Nurse’s office at the beginning of each year and to inform the school nurse in writing of any relevant changes during the year.
