Alexis I. du Pont High School

From the desk of Kevin M. Palladinetti, Principal

Please see the message from our School Nurse, Mrs. Turner

Welcome back to school! I am so glad to see returning students and meet our new students. Please help me keep them safe and healthy by sending me any plans or information about your student especially if they are being treated and use medication. For example:

  • Some students with ADHD take medication during the school day and if so, I will need that medication in the original bottle with instructions
  • Student with Asthma should have an Asthma Action Plan from their doctor, and if they carry an inhaler please complete the attached form. Plus, It is very helpful for me to have a spare inhaler in my office for that day when theirs runs out!
  • Student with allergies should have an Allergy Action Plan, example attached but you probably have one from your doctor, especially if your student carries an EpiPen!
  • Any other unique student needs that involve them visiting the nurses office during the school day

Student Data Cards should be available and going home next week; completing them and returning them may be all the information I need! Please send any supplies your student may need. Please feel free to call my office number: 3-2=651=2642 or text me: 302-223-4191 or email me at Ruthann.Turner@redclay.k12/de/us

Looking forward to a healthy year for all of us!

Nurse Turner
