Nurse's Corner
Welcome to the Nurse’s Corner!
In this section, you will find helpful information and access to school-related health documentation including immunization requirements and common medical forms. Be sure to check this section often for tips and important updates on keeping your students healthy throughout the school year.
Parents, please make sure doctor’s orders and emergency care plans are updated each school year. For students with asthma, diabetes, anaphylaxis, or seizures please turn in new doctor’s orders and update emergency plan with the school nurse. Any other life threatening condition should have an emergency care plan in place so that staff can best assist your child if needed.
Please contact us for additional information and questions.

Each school year an updated Medication Authorization must be submitted prior to the first day of school (also applicable to students who self-carry medication), and Health History forms should be completed to ensure that we have current medical information on file for your child. At the beginning of each year, your school office will send home forms for you to complete and return. Follow the links provided above to print each form, complete and return them to the office of your child’s school.
If your child self carries/administers medication at school, a Self Carry Liability Waiver must also be completed.
Medical forms may be dropped off at the school office or faxed to the following numbers:
- Elementary School: 360-263-2133
- Middle School: 360-263-5936
- High School: 360-263-1705
