Dear PCS Families,

Here we are, the last full week of the school year! We can’t believe it. We have had so many fun celebrations and countdowns happening in these last few days. We are soaking up every minute with your children as we come to the end of this school year.

A Letter from the School Nurse:

Early Childhood Families,

It’s been such a pleasure working with your little ones this year! I’m just reaching out with a few end of year plans and requests. If your child takes medications with me or has ANY as needed medications here at school such as inhalers or Epi-Pens they will be sent home on the last day of school, May 25th. I will be giving their teachers their medications to hand them to you at pick up. If your child will not be here on the last day of school, please reach out to me so we can coordinate a time for pick up before Summer Break.

If your child has any type of emergency plan for a medical condition all Emergency Action Plans are required to be updated annually. This includes Asthma Action Plans and Allergy Emergency Plans. If you’re unsure if your child needs any updated medical plans, please reach out to me. It’s imperative that I have this documentation so I can give your child their medication at school.

I will reach out at a later date to let you all know when I will start accepting medications for the 2023-2024 school year.

Thank you!

Nurse Abbie
