Student Health
The DMCS office has first aid supplies for minor injuries. If a child has a fever or is vomiting or is hurt, a staff member will phone the parents from the emergency contact information sheet. The child will wait in the office with an adult until a parent or guardian arrives. In the event of a serious emergency, emergency personnel will be notified.
If your child shows signs of illness such as fever, nausea, or flu s/he should not attend school. If a child becomes ill while at school, a parent or other authorized person will be called and will be required to pick up the child as soon as possible.
Allergies - If your child has food or other allergies please let both your child's teacher and the Office Manager know what should be avoided. Sometimes snack is a communal activity and our garden harvests will be enjoyed throughout the year. Please be sure that staff is aware of any allergies.
Prescription medication: Students are prohibited from carrying over-the-counter or prescription medication (inhalers, allergy medication, Tylenol, cough drops, etc.) at school.
If your child’s doctor has prescribed medication that must be taken during the school day, even on an occasional basis, please contact the office for the appropriate paperwork & procedural information
