Is my student well enough to go to school (Rule JLC-6)?

¿Está mi estudiante lo suficientemente sano para ir a la escuela?


School Health Services Mission Statement

The mission of the Cobb County School Health Services is to strengthen and facilitate the educational process through improvement and protection of the health status of all students. School nurses work as a team with school administrators, teachers, counselors, school social workers, families and community to identify and assist each student to reach their maximum state of well-being.

“You cannot educate a child who is not healthy and you cannot keep a child healthy who is not educated”
                              - Former US Surgeon General Jocelyn Elders, MD.
 


The Cobb County School District recognizes the importance of the health and welfare of students and staff. Therefore, the District establishes a school health service program to address the health and safety of students and staff. The program is staffed by a nursing supervisor, area consulting nurses, and licensed nurses in each school.

We coordinate with the Cobb County Board of Health in protecting children from certain symptoms of communicable diseases. Bringing a child to school with any symptoms of communicable illness puts other children at risk of getting sick. If all parents keep their sick children at home, we will have stronger, healthier and happier children. While we regret any inconvenience this may cause, in the long run this means fewer lost workdays and less illness for parents too.
