visits and hospitalizations, particularly among children. This rise is thought to be related to exposure
to multiple asthma triggers at the same time, including respiratory illnesses, seasonal allergens,
changes in air quality and shifting weather conditions.
Asthma, Allergies and other conditions:
If your child has asthma, severe allergies, diabetes, seizures, or another medical condition, please
make sure the school nurse has current health information and any necessary action plans. Keeping
this information updated helps us provide the best possible care for your child during the school day.
Medications at School:
If your child needs medication during school hours, please contact the school nurse.
For the safety of all students:
● Medications should not be sent to school with students unless specifically authorized.
● Required medication forms must be completed.
● Prescription medications must follow school policies.
Please contact the health office if you have questions regarding medication procedures.

Middle school students will have a staggered start this year so they can participate in our Bison Academy. These are required days for middle school students. We are excited for our middle schoolers to have this opportunity to connect with each other and build a positive culture, so they can be role models for our younger students.
NOTE: On the first day of school, parents will be allowed in the building to drop off students at their classroom doors. We ask that all parents exit the building by 8:30 a.m. Parents will not be allowed in the building for drop off after the first day of school.
