 Student Health
A child who is sick will not be able to perform well in school and is likely to spread the illness to other children and staff.  We suggest making a plan for childcare ahead of time so that you will have a place for your child to stay if he/she is ill.  Please be advised that students who have a fever (100 degrees or higher) are not permitted to attend school until they have been fever free WITHOUT medication (ex.Tylenol) for 24 hours.  Allow for adequate convalescence after any illness, no matter how slight the illness may be. Please do not send your student to school for diagnosis or treatment by the school nurse. Guidelines are even more stringent due to COVID pandemic.

 Emergency Contact Cards
 An updated contact card is required each year.  Please update any changes in phone numbers, guardians or employment information when they occur. You must also contact Central Registration so that your information is updated in the school-wide computer system.
