Clinic
If your child is ill because of a contagious disease such as flu, strep throat, chickenpox, etc., it would be helpful to note the reason for the absence when you record it. This will help the school take measures to know the extent of the disease and reduce its spread.
Students who have fevers should be kept at home until free of fever for 24 hours. Students who do not feel well should stay home. When students come to school ill, they not only are unable to participate fully in class, but they may also infect other students with their illness.
Medication: All paper work must accompany medication
All student medication (prescription or over the counter) must be checked into the clinic by a parent or guardian. This includes cough drops. Medicine administered at school will strictly follow the Loudoun County school board policy for medication administration. Any student who fails to follow the procedures or whose parents fail to follow them will be excluded from school until compliance is assured. The principal shall determine whether or not there is a compliance with the provision for this policy.
If medication must be given at school the following procedure needs to be followed:
In order to give medication to your student in school a Medication Administration form must be filled out (see CLINIC FORMS on left).
All medication is kept in locked and secure place within the clinic, which is known and accessible to any person who can administer medications.
Students may not carry or keep medications in their pockets, sports bags, book bag, and purses or on their person
