The Nurse’s Office is concerned with the overall health and well-being of the student and how his/her health impacts the educational process. It is important for the parent or guardian to keep the nurse informed of any health concerns. All information will be treated with sensitivity and confidentiality. For matters of an urgent nature that need immediate nursing attention please contact the nurse via telephone rather than by email.
Absences are to be reported to the main office of your child’s school. Please state the child's name, grade, teacher, and reason for absence. All other school related health concerns can be answered by the nurse's office.

Per New York State laws, ALL medications including those that can be purchased over the counter (such as Advil, Tylenol, etc.) require both a physician’s order and parent authorization. Please be advised that all medications must be delivered to the Health Office in the original pharmaceutical container by an adult with a prescription label bearing the student’s name. Children/students cannot deliver or carry medication to or from school unless they have physician authorization to do so and in consultation with the school nurse. No medication will be accepted without orders and no orders will be accepted without medication.
