No employee will be required to administer a drug to a student if the employee objects, on the basis of religious convictions, to
administering the drug.

With the exception of diabetes care covered under Policy 5336, the Board shall permit the administration by a licensed nurse or other
authorized staff member of any medication requiring intravenous or intramuscular injection or the insertion of a device into the body
when both the medication and the procedure are prescribed by a licensed health professional authorized to prescribe drugs and the
nurse/staff member has completed any and all necessary training.

Students who may require administration of an emergency medication may have such medication in their possession upon written
authorization of their parent(s) or, such medication, upon being identified as aforenoted, may be stored in the health clinic office and
administered in accord with this policy and policy 5336.
The Superintendent shall prepare administrative guidelines, as needed, to address the proper implementation of this policy.

MESSAGES & DELIVERIES

If a parent or guardian calls to leave a message for his/her child, the office personnel will do their best to see that emergency
messages are given to the student. We do not want to interrupt class time for any non-emergency reason.

Please Note:

Because we believe that responsibility is an important character trait for students to develop in middle school, forgotten
items will not be delivered to students. We do not expect students to call home for any forgotten items. In addition, we
encourage parents to refrain from providing these items once the students have arrived at school. In rare circumstances
when an item is brought for a student, the item will be available to the student for retrieval during the student’s
lunch period. *Medications are an exception.

PASSES

Students are not permitted to be in the hall at any time during classes unless they have a pass from a faculty member. Students must
check-in with the teacher whose class is being missed prior to using the pass.

It is the student’s responsibility to obtain a pass when needed.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION GUIDELINES

In an effort to ensure the creation of a safe learning environment that is conducive for positive learning experiences, the Physical
Education Department provides the following guidelines for students:

Class Expectations
1. Come to class in YOUR school issued PE uniform with appropriate shoes.
2. Demonstrate a willingness to participate in class activities.
3. Exhibit appropriate personal and social responsibility skills.
4. Students must be prepared to go outside during the first and last quarter of the school year; therefore, pants and long
sleeves/sweatshirts will be allowed over uniforms. No student is allowed to wear their uniform over their school clothes.
5. If applicable, please have medical devices (e.g., inhaler, EpiPen, etc.) available at all times; particularly, during outdoor activities
and/or fitness testing.
6. Students will be responsible for any broken equipment as a result of any misconduct during class. Teacher will provide receipt of
replacement purchase to student/family for reimbursement.

Locker Room Expectations
1. Students will be assigned a locker during their 6th grade school year, and used throughout their entire middle school experience.
2. Students will purchase school issued locks, which will be used for their entire middle school experience. If lost, replacement
locks will be sold. At the end of their 8th grade year, students may keep their lock to use at the high school.
3. It is the student’s responsibility to keep all belongings locked in their assigned locker. Please check the P.E. office anytime, if
items become lost or misplaced.
