INJURIES: If a student has an injury that causes continuous discomfort, they should only attend school once a doctor checks the condition or it improves. Injuries that interfere with class participation need medical evaluation. A physician's excuse is required if participation in physical education classes is not recommended. 

ORTHOPEDIC INJURIES: If your child sustains an orthopedic injury that requires crutches or other orthopedic devices, documentation from your healthcare provider is needed to allow entry back into school. Restrictions to activities should have a beginning and end date. 

STITCHES/STAPLES: Students who return to school with stitches should provide a written note from the doctor indicating that the child may return to school, including any restrictions on physical activity.

SURGICAL PROCEDURES: Any student who returns to school after a surgical procedure requires a note from their healthcare provider stating that the student may return to school and list any restrictions on activity.

PAIN MEDICATION: Any required pain medication (including over-the-counter) MUST be brought in by a parent/guardian and accompanied by orders from the physician. Regardless of age or grade, no student may carry or self-administer pain medication.
