Too Sick for School?
Attending school regularly is a crucial part of a student's educational success. When a student is ill or not feeling well, their learning may be impacted. This handy guide can help parents determine if their student should attend school or stay home when feeling sick.

Early Dismissal Due to Illness
In the event a student experiences a medical condition requiring early dismissal from school, the School Nurse or a designated staff member will contact the student's parent/guardian and/or emergency contact. A student will only be dismissed early due to illness following examination by the school nurse and consent from his/her parent/guardian. Per the AACMS Cell Phone Policy, students may not use a cell phone or other electronic device to call, text, or message a parent/guardian to request an early dismissal. Doing so will result in disciplinary action.
Medication Procedures
All medications taken during the school day must be administered by the School Nurse, including both prescriptions and over-the-counter medicines. Students must have an Authorization for Medication form, completed and signed by a parent or guardian and the student’s health care provider, on file with the Health Room in order to receive medication during the school day. Parents may not send any medications to school with their student.

Health Screenings
State law requires students complete certain medical screenings. AACMS completes these screenings annually in compliance with the law. These include height, weight, vision, hearing, and scoliosis screenings. Parents/guardians may request the results of these screenings by contacting the Health Room.
Additionally, state law requires students at certain grade levels complete physical and dental exams. Students may see their own health care provider for these exams or have the exam completed at school by a qualified physician or dentist. If your child receives his/her physical or dental exam outside of school, the parent/guardian must complete and submit the appropriate forms, which can be downloaded from this page.
