A NOTE FROM THE SCHOOL NURSE

**Notify us of any changes in your student’s health or emergency contact information**

• Immunizations Your child will be excluded from school until we have valid documentation of current immunizations or exemptions on file. This is a district and state policy.
• Medications A written request to administer medication form must be completed by the parent for all medications; prescription as well as over-the-counter. To obtain the medication administration form and procedures please go to: https://roundrockisd.org
  → A-Z Search → Health Services.
• Fever Protocol Students must be excluded from school until fever-free (temperature less than 100 degrees) for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications.
• Clothing Please consider sending a change of clothes in your student’s backpack in case of accidents. Head Lice Discuss with your child the importance of not sharing combs, hats, and helmets to reduce the spread of head lice. Check your child’s hair at home
  periodically.
• Screenings will be conducted on mandated grades, and new students, or requested by school staff. Please see your student handbook for details.
• Clothes Closet If you need help with clothing for your child, please stop by the nurse’s office and request a referral form. All requests are confidential.

The goal is to keep your child healthy, safe, and in the classroom participating and learning. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
