Policy 2830 – Health Services

The Board of Education believes that in order to provide for the safety and well being of its
students, it is necessary to implement and maintain a District-wide student health services
program. The health service staff will be responsible to their building principal and may also be
responsible to a designated District administrator.

The District will be responsible for providing first aid or emergency treatment for students in
cases of sudden illness or injury. Where necessary, and with notice to the parent/guardian,
emergency health services will be secured. The parent/guardian is responsible for the cost of
their child’s medical treatment.
