School Nurse Protocol
We have a new nurse this school year and added an assistant to aide with the current health situation. Information is posted below.
Head Nurse
Cynthia Ferguson
Assistant to Nurse
Tia Mitchell
Our nurses will follow protocol guidance from the CDC and Dunklin County Health Department when determining whether a child needs to be at school. The algorithm that our staff will use is posted below. Please view and understand this algorithm.
Also, our nursing staff will work closely with the Dunklin County Health department. The county health department will set ALL quarantine time frames for students with Covid and those who are contacts. The district and our nursing staff will honor all quarantine periods set by the county, with no exceptions. The county health department will issue letters for quarantine periods to the district for our students.
