OSSD Exclusion & Readmission Criteria

It is requested that parents notify the school nurse if a student is diagnosed with a communicable or contagious disease. School administration/school nurse requires a note from a parent or health care worker (Physician, local health authority, Advanced Practice Nurse or Physician's Assistant) for readmission to school when a student is excluded from attendance for a communicable disease. A student sent home by the school nurse under the following criteria will be considered excused until they meet the required criteria to return to the classroom. A notification of treatment requirements will be provided by the nurse for the parent to sign and return with the child.
