Student Illness

Please do not send your child to school when there is a sign of illness developing. Symptoms of illness may include green or yellowish nasal discharge, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, undiagnosed skin rash, etc... Students who are sick will be brought to the office. When a child has a temperature the parents will be called and the child will be sent home. Children are not permitted to return to school until they have been free of fever for 24 hours.

If you cannot be reached and the emergency contacts cannot come to get the child, we will put the child on a cot in the office and a $25 fee will be added to your account. Please use emergency contacts that are available during school hours.

Our policy is to not administer medication to children while in our care. If a child is on the premises more than 8 hours, prescription medication will be dispensed ONLY after a physician fills out a medication form. ALL MEDICATION MUST BE IN ORIGINAL CONTAINER.
