Student Pick-up Procedures
Students will be released ONLY to persons who are authorized as indicated on the enrollment form. Students must be picked up from the FITA classroom, and will not be sent to the front office/lobby area. Parents may update the pick-up authorization by adding/deleting names and contact information in writing. All persons authorized to pick up students will be required to present photo identification and sign out the student.
Student Illness, Accidents, or Injuries
- If a student has a temperature of 100 degrees or higher, or presenting symptoms such as a rash, vomiting, diarrhea, or persistent sore throat, parents will be notified to pick up their child. The student will be separated from the other children to avoid contact and possible spread of illness.
- Students who are absent from school cannot attend FITA that day.
- If it is confirmed by a physician that students are exposed to communicable diseases, parents will be notified in writing as soon as we are notified.
- Parents are encouraged to make arrangements for prescription medication to be administered by the school nurse whenever possible. However, if a child has an adverse reaction to prescribed medication, parents will be notified immediately. In addition, the child’s pediatrician or 911 may be notified by the Program Director.
- Minor injuries will be addressed by the Program Director. If the Program Director deems necessary, the parent, the child’s physician, and/or 911 may be contacted. If necessary, Eastside Medical Center will provide emergency service to the student.
- Parents will be informed of all injuries via an injury report form.
Personal Items
Children are discouraged from bringing any items to FITA that are valuable, sentimental, or fragile. Electronic devices such as cell phones, mp3 players, and digital/video games may be brought with the understanding that these items are the responsibility of the student. Damaged or lost items are not the responsibility of the FITA staff.
