Transportation of Ill or Injured Students

Transportation of Ill or Injured Students

The transportation of ill or injured students is the responsibility of the parent or guardian. Staff members are not permitted to transport students. Parents or guardians will be contacted to provide or arrange for transportation. They will also be asked to arrange for transportation for students who have driven to school, but who in the judgment of the school nurse, are medically unable to drive home safely. Other students are not permitted to transport ill or injured students.

In the event of severe illness or injury, an ambulance will be called to transport the student to the appropriate hospital. The ambulance fee is the responsibility of the parent or guardian and is usually covered by medical insurance.
