School Health Services

Our schools care about you.  We are aware that many scholars experience high levels of trauma, stress, anxiety or sadness related to school, friends and perhaps personal family issues.  Mental Health needs are not uncommon among our youth.  Many children and teens are suffering in silence. 

We also know that sometimes our families struggle and often need community support, whether that be financially, clothing, food, etc.

It is important to know that you are not alone and that there is help in our community for you, your friend, or your scholar.

Sick children should not be in school. Any scholar who has a fever, vomiting, has diarrhea or is contagious (i.e., with pink eye, strep, the flu) should be kept home. Before a scholar may return to school, vomiting, diarrhea and/or fevers must be resolved and the scholar must be symptom free, without the use of medication, for 24 hours. Please see the FREQUENT CONDITION GUIDELINES under the FORMS section.

Contact the school nurse and classroom teacher immediately.  Please treat and/or have your scholar treated prior to the return to school.  Provide documentation or email that this has been completed to contain a common spread.
