A Review from the Parent Student Handbook:
Starting this cycle we will review the Daily Operations as written in the Parent and Student Handbook.
Sickness and Emergency
- If a student is sick at school, the school will promptly inform parents so that necessary steps may be taken to help ensure his/her well-being.
- The school nurse will administer first aid but will not prescribe any medication.
- Medical emergency procedure
- In case of a medical emergency your child will be taken to The Airport Hospital. Please make sure the office has all your medical and insurance information.
- Administering prescription medication
- If your child has been prescribed medication that needs to be taken at school it is required that you provide the school nurse with the following information:
- Child’s name and class
- Parent name and contact information
- Medical name of prescription
- Amount and frequency of administration of medication
- Time of last administration
- Start and end dates of administering the medication
- If your child has been prescribed medication that needs to be taken at school it is required that you provide the school nurse with the following information:
- All students must participate in Physical Education (P.E.) or any other school activities including recesses and breaks unless they have a valid doctor’s note explaining the reason for their non-participation.
At Home
We all want the children to stay healthy, and to remain that way. So please before you bring your sick child to school, think about if they could infect the other students in their class. Also keep your phone handy through the day, as the school may have to call you if the child’s condition changes.
