What a year! Well as it winds down, I want to thank you for all of your patience and understanding with our Covid testing requirements and quarantine procedures. You have been an awesome Heights community! What a great team!
Ok, now I have to remind families with medication at school to make a plan to pick up daily medications and emergency medications as they are not supposed to be stored over the summer school break. Just give me a call or an email to make a plan for pick up.
I also want to remind you that I need updated medication forms for the upcoming year. Each new school calendar year requires new updated medication forms. These forms are available on my website or on the main SPS health page. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qQQoB-y4TCXNkSDTtO7zpClk6qyk4yI0/view?usp=sharing)
It is important to keep yearly physical exams scheduled with your child’s pediatrician. When you get these completed, please send a copy to the health office for your child’s health record at school. This is required for grades K, 4, 7, and 11 but good to send in yearly if you don’t mind.
If your child has a new health diagnosis, please keep me updated as this is important if there is an emergency at school. This is the information I would share if needed in an emergency with 911.
Have a great summer, relax, enjoy, be safe and I look forward to seeing you around Sharon and in September!
