Privacy Practices
Please be advised that state law now mandates strict privacy rules. As a result, school personnel will no longer contact a doctor, dentist, nurse or pharmacist about a student, health records or health exams unless the parent or legal guardian gives written consent. It is a parent / guardian responsibility to be sure all required documents are turned in to the school in the required time frames. If desired, a consent form permitting communication between health care professionals can be obtained in the school office.
