Nurse

Keeping your students healthy and safe is my priority. To accomplish this I need your help. Please notify the school of any health changes throughout the year. Students must be fever, vomit, and diarrhea free for 24 hours before returning to school. 
​If your student has Asthma, Seizures, Diabetes, or life threatening Allergy (epi pen use), their Action Plan needs to be update annually with their physicians signature. If your student requires daily medication it must be brought to the office by a parent/ guardian/household adult. 
I am available during school hours, Monday- Friday. Please feel free to contact me at 562-4148.

Health Screenings

​Vision and hearing screenings will be done according to current Missouri Department of Health guidelines. If you do NOT want your child screened you will need to notify me.

Medication Administration

​​In the event a student needs medication at school, the medication must be in the original container labeled by the pharmacy and brought to school by a household adult. Students are not allowed to carry medication at school, outside of carrying epinephrine, insulin and asthma inhalers.   A permission form must also be filled out by the parent/guardian prior to medication administration.  These forms are located at school or on the school nurse web site.  The 1st dose of any medication will not be given at school.  Any medications remaining at the end of the school year will be destroyed if not picked up by a parent or guardian.
