In June 2019, new legislation was signed that there is no longer a religious exemption allowed for children who attend a public, private or parochial school and students must be vaccinated. See the letter sent out by the district.
It is back to school time and be sure your child has all their recommended immunizations.

If your child has an injury and needs to be restricted from activities such as sports or missing more than one PE class day a medical note will be required. Please bring, send or fax that note to the nurse's office. The School Nurse may need another note giving clearance to return to sports or PE from the doctor.

The school nurse may not dispense medication to pupils without written authorization from parents and the attending physician. This applies to both prescription and non-prescription drugs. If pupils are taking medication, try to have it administered at home. If it must be taken during school hours, the following requirements must be met for each specific case of treatment:
1. There must be, from the family physician, a written request indicating frequency and dosage of the medication. This needs to be done per school year.
2. There must be a written request from the parent to administer the medication as specified by the physician. Medication should be in the original prescription bottle with the student's name and the name of the medication. This needs to be done per school year.
3. Direct personal delivery of the medication must be made by the parent. No medication can be sent on the bus. At the end of the school year the parent needs to pick up the medication or it will be discarded. No medications can be stored or carried over from one year to the next.
