Nurse
All students who have any of the following symptoms must stay home and participate in remote learning until symptom-free: fever, cough, shortness of breath, muscle/body aches, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.
Students who have these symptoms while on campus will be sent home and will be required to quarantine for 10 days (they may return to campus sooner if negative COVID-19 results are provided). Anyone considered a "close contact" to a positive case will be individually notified to quarantine for 10 days.
If your student tests positive for COVID-19, please notify the health office.
Manzano health office
Please keep the health office informed yearly of any health conditions, medications, or concerns. We are here to support our students. Also, please ensure contact information is up to date in case of emergency.
Medications At School
If your student requires medications or procedures at school, the proper form must be completed and signed by a physician each school year - see health office form links to the left.
All medications provided for use in the health office must include the prescription label. Over the counter medications must be in a new, unopened bottle. We cannot accept expired medications.
Parents are required to pick up non-emergency medications at the end of the school year or the medications will be discarded by health office staff. Reminders will be sent home mid-May.
