Health Office

Santa Clarita Christian School (SCCS) has a nurse on campus during all school hours. All visits to the health office by students are recorded on a Referral To The Health Office form. A written accident report is turned in to the office for all incidents. Students with temperatures of 100.0 F or higher, who are vomiting, have evidence of viral rash, conjunctivitis, or other evidence of a contagious disease will be sent home. Students with the above symptoms will not be allowed to attend class until free of fever for 24 hours, lack of vomiting for 24 hours, and/or a note from a physician stating that the student is well enough and no longer contagious. Students must be on antibiotics for a full 24 hours before returning to school. Crutches, casts, splints, slings, and stitches all need a note from a physician giving Health Office personnel the approval for the student to be on campus and explaining any limitations that should be applied.

Please remember that any first aid treatment given by the Health Office does not replace taking your child to the doctor. If your child has any special health needs, please communicate with the school nurses so that they can support you and your child.
