Special Medical Needs

If a student has a special medical condition or suffers from severe allergic reactions, parents must inform the school office.  Many students suffer from food or environmental allergies.  It is imperative that classroom teachers be aware of the procedure or medication required in an emergency.  For JK/SK children, one epi-pen should be housed in the office with the student's photo.  If your JK/SK child is comfortable in wearing his/her epi-pen on his/her body (via fanny pouch), we encourage them to do so.  Students in grades 1-8 are encouraged to carry their own epi-pens and have one kept in the office. Also, students who require the use of an inhaler should carry one with them at all times.
