From the Nurse ------------Will County Health Department Immunizations Clinics - (Flyer; English, Spanish)

Dear Parents:
The following are guidelines to assist both you and school personnel to provide your child with the best school health services.

1. Observe your child every day before sending him or her back to school. If your child shows signs or symptoms of illness please keep him or her at home. We must send students back home if they continue to show these signs or symptoms of illness:

  1. Fever
  2. Nausea or vomiting
  3. Diarrhea
  4. Sore throat
  5. Unexplained rash
  6. Prolonged headache
  7. Unusual paleness
  8. Dizziness or fainting
  9. Red, crusty, itchy or matted eyes
  10. Swollen glands
  11. Unusual fatigue
  12. Prolonged stomachache

2. Notify the school if your child will be absent for any reason and why by 9:00 A.M. If you know your child will be absent in advance, please notify the teacher and the office by note at least the day before the anticipated absence. Homework requests must be made at the time of absence notification, however requests are not a guarantee that work can be obtained.

3. When should you keep your child home from school? (Click here for information)

3. Notify the school if your child has a contagious disease as soon as your physician diagnoses it. Notify the school if your child should develop head lice or ring worm.

4. Send a note signed by the parent or guardian with your child when he/she returns to school after any absence.

5. SEND A NOTE SIGNED BY A PHYSICIAN WHEN:

  1. The child has recovered from an illness or contagious disease, which has kept him out of school for 3 or more days or any condition requiring hospital or surgical care.
  2. The child returns to school with a cast or stitches.
  3. The child has any condition requiring hospital or surgical care.
  4. Physical Education Excuse: A written excuse must be provided for any student who is unable to participate in physical education. All notes excusing students from PE class must be turned in at the beginning of the school day to the Nurses office. A parent/guardian may excuse a student for illness or a condition that does not warrant daily medical attention for one day, three times per trimester. Cases such as these required parental discretion as to the seriousness of the illness or injury bearing in mind that full participation in physical education is an important goal. Excuses for minor illnesses such as colds or aches and pains are not accepted. In the event of an extended medical condition, which is defined as 3 consecutive days or longer, a written doctor’s note explaining the problem, cause of the problem, and length of excused time must be given to the school nurse. In the event that a doctor’s note does not clarify a return date, a written note from the doctor is required to return to PE. Those students who have an extended excuse from physical education will participate in an alternate activity. A doctor’s note is required for any student with stitches, staples, splint, cast or the need for crutches (explaining that the student has been trained to use crutch use). Any student excused from physical education will not be allowed to participate in lunch recess or extra-curricular sports activities. If the physician deems it necessary that the student should have a modified PE class, the PE teacher and the nurse will meet to discuss appropriate modifications.

6. Contact the school nurse for information regarding the taking of medications at school. You and the physician prescribing the medication must complete the required request form. NO medications are to be taken at school, except when absolutely necessary for the critical health and well being of the student.

7. YOUR CHILD IS NOT TO CARRY ANY MEDICATIONS WITH HIM IN SCHOOL OR ON THE BUS. You as the parent must hand deliver them to the nurse.

Thank your for your cooperation,
