Nursing Services

  • The District Nurse provides health services to students at each school site one day per week in addition to being on call if needed for an emergency.  The school nurse handles record-keeping and emergency situations involving accidents and illness. For example, the District Nurse tracks reports of communicable disease and illness, such measles, mumps, lice and strep, and sends any related commications home to parents.

    If the situation warrants, parents may be contacted to come and pick-up your child from school. Paramedics are called if needed. In addition, the school is equipped with first aid kits for emergency situations. First aid kits are always included on all field trips to ensure your child's safety.
