The North Penn School District provides our school with nursing services on one day. Saint Stanislaus Parish School provides its own nurse on the other days of the week.  The school nurse provides first aid and assists the students when they are not feeling well. The nurse checks heights and weights of the students in all grades. Scoliosis screening is provided for children in the seventh (7th) grade. Vision screening and auditory testing are administered according to state mandates. Physical and dental examinations can be performed by your personal health care provider, or by a professional supplied by North Penn School District.

MEDICATION

No student may carry any type of prescription or over the counter medication.

If a student needs to take medication during the school day, a parent / guardian must bring the medication to the nurse's office accompanied by a signed note from the doctor or parent / guardian, with complete instructions for dispensing the medication. Prescription medication and over-the-counter medication must be brought to school in the original container. Note: Two (2) bottles should be requested from the pharmacy - one for home and one for school. Over-the-counter medication must be in the original container, labeled with the student's name.
