Code Number: 504.10
When warranted, school personnel will notify the student’s legal guardian when the student becomes ill or injured at school or school-sponsored events.
The District, while not responsible for medical treatment, transportation, or medical expense of an ill or injured student, will have employees present to administer emergency or minor first aid if possible. As quickly as possible, an ill or injured child will be turned over to the care of their legal guardian(s) or alternate contact(s), or qualified medical employee(s), or emergency medical services.
Parents shall be provided and required to provide student registration/health and safety emergency information through the registration process at the beginning of each school year. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to ensure this information is updated as needed during the school year.
