HAND WASHING <br /> Hand washing is a standard practice in preschool and kindergarten as children enter the classroom <br /> in the morning. Children also wash hands prior to snack, before lunch and after using the bathroom. <br /> Adults visiting or volunteering in these rooms during the school day must wash their hands upon <br /> entering. In grades one and two specific classrooms may display a hand washing sign on the <br /> classroom door and/or doorway floor. Upon visiting or volunteering in these rooms, one must wash <br /> hands upon entering. <br /> TOOTH BRUSHING <br /> Preschool and kindergarten children who eat two or more meals at school during the day(i.e., <br /> breakfast and lunch)will have the option to brush their teeth. Snack does not constitute one of <br /> these meals. Parents/guardians will be required to sign a permission slip and will provide the <br /> necessary equipment. <br /> LAVATORY HYGIENE <br /> Regarding toileting and diapering, children's Individualized Education Plans will generally <br /> indicate the requirement for this assistance. Early childhood guidelines will be followed. <br /> SCHEDULE OF HEALTH SERVICES <br /> Services Provided By Grade <br /> Vision/bearing screening (1) Nurse or Health Assistant PS-6 <br /> Postural screening Nurse, Health Assistant or PE Dept. 5, 6 <br /> Physical Examinations (2) M.D. K and 4 <br /> Immunizations <br /> with parent permission <br /> reviewed each year M.D. <br /> Heights and weights Nurse or Health Assistant PS-6 <br /> Dental program: Fluoride rinse <br /> once weekly all year Nurse or Health Assistant and Teacher 1-6 <br /> Additionally, the screenings are provided to all new students and children under Chapter 766. <br /> SCHOOL INSURANCE <br /> As a service to parents/guardians, a voluntary Student Accident Insurance program is offered. <br /> It is available at the lowest possible premium.
