No medication can be given at school without a written doctor’s order and a written parent’s consent

Don’t forget that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Make an effort to get up just a little bit earlier so that breakfast can be a part of your child’s morning routine.

The incidence of illness tends to increase in the fall and winter months. Remember that frequent hand washing is our first line of defense. Encourage hand washing at home so that it will become a habit that your child will bring to the school setting.

Health screenings of all students continues with heights and weights, hearing, vision, and blood pressures. Parents/guardians will be notified of any problems that are identified. Please follow up as quickly as possible with your family physician once a problem has been identified.
