Health-Care Policies

Students who become ill during the school day are to go to the office. No internal medication, including aspirin, will be administered by school personnel. No student with a temperature of 100 degrees or above will be allowed to re- main in school. Parents will be called to pick up their child(ren).

Students requiring the service of a physician will be handled in accordance with the parent's direction given on the emergency data form. If a student must take prescription medicine during the school day, that medicine must be in the original container. The school and/or teacher cannot assume responsibility for administering this medication.

As a general rule, when a student is well enough to attend school, he is well enough to participate in physical education activities unless there is a written doctor's excuse on file.
