Important Attendance Information
A MESSAGE FROM THE NURSE
As we enter into the Holiday season, please remember during this time of being with friends and families and eating lots of food, the importance of hand hygiene.
Just some reminders:
If your student is sick please keep them home. According to our school guidelines, your student should be fever free for 24 hours (that is without any medications), before returning to school. Also, according to the school guidelines, the student should be free from vomiting and diarrhea for 24 hours (without the use of medication), before returning to school.
The nurse’s office does not have allergy medicine for students, if your child needs allergy medicine please have them take it before coming to school. The nurse’s office also does not have any cold medicine. If your child is in need of cold medicine please be sure that they are taking a 6 -12 hours medicine before coming to school so that it will get them through the school day.
All 11th graders are required by Pennsylvania school health law to have a physical to enter the eleventh grade. If you have not already done so please turn in all completed physical forms as well as update immunization records to the school nurse.
Be sure that your students are eating breakfast so that they are fueled to start the day. Breakfast is available for free in the cafeteria every morning before school starts for the students convenience.
The best way to keep your students healthy is to remind them to wash their hands with soap and water, use hand sanitizer whenever they enter the classroom or cafeteria, and to also try to avoid individuals that are sick.
Happy Holidays!
