Health Services
Our department's focus is supporting student health and contributing to a safe and healthy environment in which all students can learn. The Health Services team is comprised of a lead nurse, school nurses and health room assistants.
We work closely with students and their families, school staff and Public Health to promote better health for academic success. Our team is responsible for mandated health screenings, immunization compliance, assessment of student health needs, development & implementation of required individual emergency health plans, some health-related training and education for students and staff, and monitoring health-related issues that can impact the educational setting.

MEASLES
Measles is a serious disease that causes a rash and fever. Measles is very contagious. It spreads when a person with measles breathes out, coughs or sneezes. Anyone who is not vaccinated is much more likely to get measles. Measles can be dangerous, especially for babies and young children. It can cause swelling of the brain and lung infections; and in rare cases, it can be deadly.
Vaccination is the best way to protect your family. The MMR shot is safe and very effective at preventing measles. It also protects against mumps and rubella. Doctors recommend that all children get the MMR shot. Getting the MMR vaccine is safer than getting measles. Most children do not have any side effects from the shot. The side effects that do occur are usually mild and don’t last long, such as a fever, mild rash, and soreness. Ask your doctor if you have questions about measles or MMR vaccine.
