Welcome to the Health Office

Greeting SKS families!

We look forward to assisting your children throughout the school year in our Health Office. Here are a few friendly reminders to everyone regarding the sick policies and when to keep your child home from school. A close collaboration between parents and schools is one of the most important aspects of our health plan. If your child has a fever above 100.4 you should keep them home until they are 24 hours fever free without Tylenol/Motrin. If your child has active vomiting or diarrhea, please keep them home until symptoms clear.

Please remember that if your child requires medication while in school a form must be filled out by the family physician. Medication should be brought in by the parents and delivered to the Health Office. If your child requires an allergy action form, please have your physician complete the action plan and submit it to us. Forms can be found on the SKS website under the “parent information” tab. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us any time.
