Allergy and Asthma Care

It is not too late to bring in epi pens or inhalers for your child that has allergies, requiring an epi pen, or asthma that requires an inhaler occasionally. Please bring them to me, in the nurse's office, and I will keep them for your child’s use during school hours.

If you have a child here with asthma or food allergies requiring medication, please send an updated Action Plan for our records.We need a new Action Plan every year. These come from your child’s medical provider and are very helpful in guiding us on the care for your child while here at school. Usually you just need to call their medical provider and they will fax the Action Plan to me.

Procedure for Exclusion from School due to Illness

Certain conditions require exclusion from school to prohibit the spread of viral and bacterial disease. This is to protect both the uninfected population and the infected person. The school nurse will use his/her professional judgment when assessing the person and judging whether to exclude.

Students/staff with the following symptoms should be excluded until symptom free or a licensed care professional submits a letter of non-contagious status:

• Fever of 100.4F or more

• Persistent coughing or difficulty breathing

• Abnormal, discolored nasal drainage

• Any unidentified and/or widespread rash or weeping lesions

• Persistent pain (headache, ear, stomach, throat, etc.)

• Any untreated or suspected cases of conjunctivitis with colored discharge

• Communicable diseases such as Influenza, COVID19, chicken pox, untreated impetigo or scabies

• Vomiting

• Diarrhea

Students may not return to school until they are free from all symptoms for a 24-hour period without medication assistance.

“From Stories to Service” is returning in fall 2024, and we are looking for volunteers to read and select books for consideration. Volunteers will be responsible for reading and completing a short evaluation of 15-20 picture books, and attending a committee meeting in late September.

The mission of the Crestwood Family is to inspire all students to learn and grow to be curious, caring and confident learners in a respectful, responsible, and safe community.

Excellence in Learning. Designing the Future.
