5 NEWS FROM THE HEALTH ROOM Please consider protecting your family members with a flu vaccine for the upcoming flu season! The attached guidelines review symptoms indicating when to keep your child home from school. Please notify the Health Room regarding any recent or chronic health issues for your child, including food allergy or asthma, or any injury requiring a cast, splint, or crutches. All medications require a completed school medication form completed by both the parent and a physician. All medication must be brought to the Health Room by an adult. Do not send any medication to school with your child. A physician s self-carry order and Health Room approval are required before a student may self-carry emergency medication in school. Vision and Hearing screening will be held at MRMS on February 1 st, 2018 for all 8 th grade students and students new to Anne Arundel County. If you have concerns about your child s vision or hearing, please contact the Health Room directly at Parents of 6 th grade students: Plan ahead now to obtain required Tdap booster (tetanus/ pertussis) and meningitis (MCV4) immunizations for your child. Proof of these vaccinations must be submitted in order for your student to enter 7 th grade. Please send documentation to the Health Room as soon as these vaccinations are obtained. Thank you!
