NOTES FROM OUR SCHOOL NURSE - MRS. RILEY

1. Don't send medications in with the students (cough drops, creams and lotions, etc.). An adult needs to bring medication with the doctor's order. It is Albert Gallatin School District's policy that students do not transport medications.

2. If you are feeling sick, please stay home.

3. Remember to wear a mask or face shield when in school and on the school bus.

4. Wash your hands frequently, especially before and after eating. Use hand sanitizer in between handwashing, as needed.

Please do not hesitate to call the school nurse if you have any questions. Stay healthy and stay safe.

- Mrs. K. Riley (school nurse)

DISMISSAL PROCEDURES

We, at A.L. Wilson Elementary, value student safety.

If a change in dismissal procedures for your child must occur, please send a note to school, with your child, in the morning detailing the dismissal procedures for that day.

If no note/phone call is received, students will follow their regular dismissal procedures.

If you will be picking up your child two or more times per week from school, please write a note to the office so the appropriate paperwork can be sent home requesting a car tag. If you do not have a car tag, you will be required to park and enter the main office to dismiss your child.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep all of our students safe.
