Important Information from the Student Health Office

1. Reporting your child's absence: Please remember to report your child's absence daily in Genesis or by calling the attendance line (973) 584-1643. The reason for your child's absence needs to be included. If your child is sick, the symptoms that he/she is experiencing need to be included as well.

2. Reasons to keep your child home or contact the nurse:

-Your child has tested positive for Covid-19

-Your child has a fever

-Your child has vomited

-Your child has diarrhea

-Your child has a rash

-Your child has head lice

-Your child has an eye infection

-Your child has been in the hospital

*In addition to the above, with any other illness you should keep your child home until his or her symptoms are improving. Child needs to be fever, diarrhea and vomit free (without any medication) for 24 hours prior to returning. There are some conditions that require a doctor’s note for clearance (please check with the nurse) but when possible, doctor’s notes are always encouraged.

3. We take food allergies very seriously here at Franklin. If your child has a food allergy or sensitivity and you would like an alternate menu, please contact Lorraine Kunick, Director of Nutrition for Maschio’s Food Services via email: lkunick@maschiofood.com. If your child comes to school without a packed lunch, we will assume it is okay for that student to have the daily menu option or the swap out item. You can find the lunch menu on the Franklin website.

You can find information about our Life Threatening Food Allergy Program here.

Students can only bring food from the Approved Snacks list into their classrooms or instructional areas.

4. Please send your child with a change of clothes in the event they have an accident or get dirty at recess.

Please click here (English) or here (Spanish) for information about fluoride varnish being offered.
