HEALTH ROOM. Students who become ill or injured should check into the health room in the office. The health room at Fox is staffed daily by a health assistant with a nurse who supervises and is on campus one day a week. It is important for the school to be able to contact parents/guardians or a trusted friend/relative in case a student becomes ill or injured while at school. Students will not be allowed to leave school without the permission of one of these people. At the beginning of each year, families provide the school with accurate phone numbers for work, home and emergency contacts. If any of these numbers change, please notify the school office immediately. If a child needs medical attention and a parent/guardian or other emergency contact cannot be reached, school personnel will contact emergency medical services to transport the child by ambulance to the preferred hospital listed on the Student Health Inventory form. Minor injuries are usually followed up with a written note, sent home with the student, from the health assistant or building registered nurse. Deliveries to the school, such as mylar balloons or flowers can be a distraction to the learning climate. We discourage families from sending items like this to the school. Should a student receive a delivery that would be appropriate to take to the classroom, the student will be called at the next available scheduled break to come to the office to retrieve the item. Other items will be kept in the office until the end of the day. a book to the classroom in the student’s name.
