Health Office Information

If your child has a sudden onset of cough, difficulty breathing, fever, diarrhea or has vomited, please keep them home for 24 hours or until they are symptom free without medication.

If parents/guardians will be out of town for a length of time, please notify the office in writing. We need to know who will be responsible for your child in case of illness or emergency. This information should include whose home they will be staying, along with phone numbers.

MEDICATION: CUSD requires that a Medication Form (HS-11a) signed by both parents and physician be on file in our Health Office for any medication (including prescription and/or over the counter) use at school. All medications are to be in their original container and clearly labeled with your student’s name. Please stop by our health office if you need this form. ***Medication services at school will begin once all paperwork is completed.

If your child is diagnosed with a specific illness, i.e. diabetes, epilepsy, etc. you must contact our Health Office the first day of school. This will ensure communications that are necessary for your child to be fully prepared to deal with their medical condition here at school.

Currently, the School Nurse is available once a week (all day) and the Health Aide Monday through Friday. Never hesitate to call the Health Office if you have a question or concern regarding your child.
