Health Services & Immunizations

 

In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and to protect the health and safety of our school community, Per the latest Federal, state, and local guidance, the Beaumont Unified School District will require students to wear face coverings when attending in-person learning on campus. The District recognizes that some students have medical conditions or disabilities that prevent them from wearing a face mask or other face covering. This form should be used by parents/guardians who are seeking an exemption to this requirement. It is important to note that in order to receive a medical or disability-related exemption, the medical condition or disability must prevent the student from wearing a face covering.

Administration of medication during the school day is permitted only with written directions from the health care provider and the parent/guardian. This includes over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol. The medication must be in the original container professionally labeled by the pharmacist for this purpose.

Emergency Telephone Numbers

Screening Procedures
Per California state law, students in various grades are screened yearly for visual acuity, hearing, and scoliosis. Hearing and Vision screenings are done on Kindergarten, 2nd, 5th, and 8th-grade students. Screenings are usually held in the fall and are done with a contracted agency. Hearing and vision screenings are also done on special education students for their initial IEP and their 3-year evaluation. Parents/Guardians are informed of any abnormal findings by parent notification letters.

 

Communicable Disease
Your child should be kept at home when he/she has a disease such as impetigo, pink eye, chickenpox, head lice, flu, or any other communicable disease.  Your cooperation will help prevent the spread of these diseases.  Please contact the school nurse for further information on particular diseases.
