GUIDELINES
FOR STUDENTS AND PARENTS:
·
If
your child calls or texts you from their cell phone that they do not feel well,
please encourage them to go to the nurse.
Otherwise, if you come to pick them up from school, it is considered an unexcused
dismissal. Anytime a student comes to
see me and asks to talk to a parent, I ALWAYS allow them to call you from my school
phone.
·
If
your child has a fever above 100 F, or has vomiting/diarrhea, it is Harford
County Public Schools practice that the child must go home. Your child may return to school once they
have been fever-free over 24 hours WITHOUT acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or other
fever-reducers. The last episode of
vomiting or diarrhea must have ended for at least 24 hours before returning to
school, as well.
·
If
your child is injured and requires a cast, splint, crutches, etc., and/or has
activity restrictions, we require a doctor’s note excusing them from physical
education. Parents may write a PE
excusal for three consecutive PE classes, otherwise the note MUST be from a
doctor. If the doctor’s note states “NO
PE UNTIL SEEN BY A SPECIALIST”, we will not allow the student to participate in
PE until we receive a note from the specialist stating the student is cleared
to participate.
