St. Joseph School is constantly reviewing our policies and procedures to help keep your children and the SJS community safe and healthy. With that said, SJS is requesting that families PRE-SCREEN children prior to coming to school and please keep children home if they are not feeling well.
SJS is a NUT "cautious" Facility
This means that your child MAY have nut items in the classroom or cafeteria setting. Students with nut allergies will have a designated seating area (at the end of each lunch table, with their class). At this time our PK4 classroom will remain NUT FREE. If you have any questions please contact us at 401-821-3450 to speak to our school nurse.
Medications
This year St. Joseph School is asking any child that needs to have medication administered or held for an emergency at school, to provide the school appropriate documentation along with the proper forms. This includes any OVER THE COUNTER medications for chronic illness, including allergies as well as any medications your child is self carrying. Medication should be in the original package/bottle. Also. please make sure medication has not expired. For any questions or concerns, please contact Meg Garrett, RN at [email protected].
Please hand in the following medication release documents to the school nurse for proper administration medication:
Authorization to Self Carry (i.e. inhaler,Epipen etc.)
Over the Counter Medication (i.e. Ibuprofen, Advil, Benadryl)**
Request to Administer Medication**
**Both of these documents must be filled out together
