The nurse may administrer Ibuprofin (Motrin) or Acetaminophen (Tylenol) to a student, as needed for pain, if the parent provides a written doctor's order, on the office letter head, authorizing it.
Parents are asked to notify the nurse if their child is diagnosed with a significant contagious illness. Any student who has a fever may not return to school until he/she is fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications. In the case where an antibiotic is required, the child must be on antibiotics for 24 hours before returning to school.
