Allergy season is in full swing. If your student has seasonal allergies and takes allergy medication, please make sure they take the medication before coming to school. The health office does not have allergy medication available. If your student forgets their medication, parents/guardians may bring and administer the medication to their student in the health office.
Just a reminder about our district medication policy. Students are not permitted to have any medication with them at school. Only inhalers and Epipens with self-carry doctor's orders are permitted. Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and Tums are available at the health office with parent permission. If your student needs any other medication at school, please see the Administrations of Medication policy for instructions.

To keep classrooms focused and learning uninterrupted, all wireless devices, including cell phones, smart watches, earbuds, and similar devices, must be OFF and AWAY during the school day unless a teacher gives a specific academic reason to use them. Students will be reminded each morning to power down their devices.
Please let your child know that you will not be texting or calling during school hours. If a student needs to reach a parent, a staff member can provide permission. In an emergency, the main office is the best way to get in touch. More details are available in the Springton Lake Student Handbook.
