Nursing care is available for emergency first aid and illnesses occurring during the school day.  A student will be sent home if temperature is 100 degrees F or above.

Parents/guardians, as well as students, are free to call upon the school nurse with any health care questions or concerns.  Call a physician if there is a question whether a student needs medical attention or may attend school with an illness or injury.

It is our goal as School Nurses to promote a safe and healthy community in which students will be encouraged to become life-long learners.
