The Tennessee School Health Guidelines do not allow schools to provide any medication to students. All medicine given to students at school, MUST be provided by their parents. The parent MUST also sign a medication consent form before the medication can be given at school. Do not send your student to school with the expectation of sending your child to the front office to receive medication for an illness. It is best to keep your child at home until the illness subsides. Sending them to school during a time of illness does NOT benefit the child. If your child has a virus such as a head cold or flu, it is especially important to keep them at home. This will help us to limit exposure to others that have not contracted the virus. No one likes to get sick so please don't send your child to school to spread the virus to others.
Please, Always Check In!
It is our school policy that all visitors must always check in at the office immediately after entering the building. Please help us to maintain a safe and organized environment for learning by obtaining a visitor’s badge from the office. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us to make Alcoa Middle School a safe place for our students and your children.
