Hello, families.

We look forward to working with your children to keep them healthy throughout the school year!

Please help by providing up to date and accurate health information to your school nurse.  This includes:

• Current physical exams and dental exams for Grades Kindergarten, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and all new entrants

• Current immunization records

• Current doctor’s orders for medical excuses, conditions and medications.

Your school nurses also need to be made aware of the following:

• Broken bones

• Injuries that require crutches, wheelchairs, slings, casts, or any other assistance device.

• Lacerations that required stitches or staples

• Concussions

• Contagious diseases-Covid-19, RSV, flu, strep throat, fifth's disease and other illnesses.

• Serious medical conditions-diabetes, heart disease, asthma, anaphylaxis, seizures and other concerns.

As a reminder, students who are ill must remain home for a full 24 hours and be free from fever, vomiting or diarrhea before returning to school, or have completed a one full dose of an antibiotic.
 
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. 
 
Best Regards,
KLSD School Nurses
