Does your child have a health condition we need to know about?
As the school nurse at Alexander Adaire Elementary School, I would like to know about your child’s health condition.  Please complete the form (S865) and return it to the nurse as soon as possible.

If your child requires medication in school, please contact the nurse or send your child to the health room for the proper form (MED-1) or (MED-1 (Asthma) to be completed by your child’s doctor.  For everyone’s safety, student’s ARE NOT permitted to bring any medications into school without written permission from the parent, doctor, and the approval of the school nurse.  This includes asthma inhalers and over the counter medications.

COVID Testing Consent Form & Information Hub

Covid Testing Consent Form
Click here for the school district’s consent form for testing, which can be completed electronically online. COVID-19 Testing is one of the layers of mitigation that will maximize the safety of our students and staff during the 2022- 2023 school year. Because testing will need to be performed regardless of a parent or guardian’s availability at the time a test will be administered, consent for testing is required for all students. The testing will be provided for students at no cost to students or their family.
