You, as a parent or guardian, have the fundamental right to make decisions regarding the upbringing and control of your child. Our goal as a district is to be a supportive partner in that effort, providing effective academic instruction to maximize student learning. In service of that goal, we also work to support the general well-being of our students so they can remain academically focused.
School personnel are always expected to encourage your child to discuss any issues related to their well-being with you. School personnel can also facilitate a conversation between you and your child about any issues related to their well-being. Furthermore, employees are expected to keep parents informed about observations of their child’s mental, emotional, or physical health. You have the right to access your child’s education records at any time.
As you might expect, teachers and other employees will periodically inquire about a child’s well-being (e.g., asking how a student is feeling). In some cases, however, more formalized efforts may be appropriate, and if that is the case, we intend to work in ways that are consistent with your goals as a parent. If school personnel determine that a student needs some additional structured observation – called monitoring – we will notify you.
Our school offers a variety of health-related and health care services to each student. This notice is meant to inform you of all available health-related and health-care services we offer, not necessarily to indicate that any of these services will be provided to your child.
