Life Threatening Allergies at School:
We have 10 students that are allergic to NUTS here at HMES. Please refrain from sending in lunches and treats that contain nuts if possible. We do have a NUT FREE table in the cafeteria, but limiting the products brought into the school will be helpful in keeping all of our kiddos safe.
Vision and Hearing Mass Screening:
The SC Department of Education recommends and encourages mass vision and hearing screenings for certain grades to occur at school. Nurse Bailey will send a referral home if your child has been screened and needs to see a physician for a more detailed screening.
****K-1 students should have a change of clothing to keep in the classroom/bookbag. Accidents and spills happen often, and the health room closet does not always have extras.****
Medications at School:
All medicines must be brought to school by an adult. All prescription medications must have the district form signed by the physician and parent. All non-prescription medications must have a district form signed by the parent.
If you want your child to receive Tylenol or Ibuprofen while at school, please fill out the non-prescription medicine form and bring in the medicine.
