Kennedy Junior High School
Procedure You Need to Know
The child should be fully aware of what happens to them when exposed to these situations. Our Health Office also needs to be aware of this condition and have current and accurate Emergency Contact Information. As parent/guardian, we strongly suggest that you visit our Health Office as soon as possible to insure all proper forms are complete, secondary medication(s) are available and all other questions may be properly addressed in a timely fashion.
What if my child has to take any medication (over-the-counter or prescribed) during the school year?
Have your physician complete a medication permission form. You can obtain this form either from our Health Office or go to the district Health Form Site at https://www.naperville203.org//site/Default.aspx?PageID=2384. We must have this form on file before we can dispense any medication to your child.
Medication, both prescription and over-the-counter, must be brought to school in the original pharmacy or manufacturer's container. Over-the-counter medication containers need to be labeled with your child's name and grade.
Any medication currently at school will be sent home with your child on the last full day of school, with the exception of emergency medications. These will be sent home the last day of class attendance. Please let the Health Office know if this is unacceptable so that other arrangements can be made.
Students may bring cell phones to school, but the phones must be turned off and stored in their locker from the time students arrive at school until 2:50 p.m. A phone is available for students to use. Office phones are only available to students in an emergency situation.
All students should be dropped off at the front (north) entrance. All vehicles should enter from the east driveway and exit through the west driveway. Please form one line, next to the curb closest to the front of the school. Drop off students quickly and then move on. If you are done dropping off before the person ahead of you, the right side of the driveway is for pulling out (with caution.) Please pause at the pedestrian cross walk before exiting. Please do not enter the parking lot to drop off students because this adds to delaying the traffic flow and is dangerous to your child. The bus lane (far west) is reserved for buses only at all times. No cars should drive into the back parking lot.
Yes, unless your student has a pass provided by your doctor or dentist.
