Husky Happenings " Family Edition"
September 30, 2024
Reminders:
Students should not have any type of medication or ointments/creams in their possession. If your student requires medication to be given while at school, please bring in the medication with the authorization to administer medication form filled out by the doctor and signed by a parent/guardian to me. This includes all prescription and over the counter (OTC), routine and as needed medications.
Being in such close proximity to the power plant, the Health Department has provided the school with Potassium Iodine tablets should there be an emergency at the Power Plant. Some students may have already brought the form home. If you did not receive a form and would like to opt your child out of receiving the tablet, please reach out to me and I will get the form to you. ONLY RETURN THE SIGNED FORM IF YOU DO NOT WISH FOR YOUR STUDENT TO RECEIVE THE TABLET, should the need arise.
With cough and cold season coming upon us, everyone may have minor coughs and sniffles. Per the Health Services Handbook that was sent home with everyone at the start of the year, if you feel your child would need cough drops throughout the day, you may send in a note with the cough drops in the original packaging. Cough drops are only authorized to be given for 3 days
