- Medication will be kept in the clinic and will be administered by clinic personnel (the school nurse) or a designated staff member.
- Students are not allowed to have any medication (not even over the counter medication) in their possession. In the event that a student must have a medication in their possession, a doctors’ note is required stating the name of the prescription and dosage.
- Parents must pick up and drop off medicine in the main office. The nursing staff will be responsible for administering the medication. Parents cannot administer medication to students.
- If medication expires, it is the parents’ responsibility to replace it. Parents will be notified the last week of school to come and pick up their student’s medication from the clinic and sign for it. Any medication not picked up by the last day of school will be disposed of by the clinic staff.
COVID
As of the 2022-2023 school year, COVID absences will be treated like all other absences. A student must have a COVID test result from his/her doctor to excuse the absences.
If a student tests positive for COVID, regardless of vaccination status, they should:
- Stay home for 5 days.
- If they have no fever or symptoms after the 5th day, they may returned to school.
- Upon returning to school, a mask must be worn around others for the next 5 days.
If a student has been exposed to COVID but have not had the vaccine within the last 6 months, they should:
- Wear a mask around others for 10 days.
- Test on day 5. If positive, OR if any symptoms present, stay home following the above protocol.
Parents should complete the following forms if applicable to their child.
