MEDICATION IN SCHOOL
Any student requiring medication during the school day must have signed permission from both the doctor and parent.
This is good for the current school year and must be renewed each year.
PHYSICAL EXAMS
Lebanon Township requires a Physical Exam for all incoming Pre-School and Kindergarten students as well as any students transferring into the district.
Teach your children to cover their nose and mouth with a tissue when they cough or sneeze, and to throw the tissue in the trash after they use it. If a tissue is not available, they can cover their coughs or sneezes with their elbow, arm, or sleeve instead.
Teach your children to wash their hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.
Teach your children to avoid touching their eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs spread this way.
Know the signs and symptoms of the flu. Symptoms of the flu include fever (100 degrees Fahrenheit, 37.8 degrees Celsius, or greater), cough, sore throat, a runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, and feeling very tired. Some people may also vomit or have diarrhea.
If your child is sick, keep them home. Children should stay home for at least 24 hours after they no longer have fever or do not have signs of fever, without using fever-reducing drugs. Any children who are determined to be sick while at school will be sent home.
