Please communicate with your child's coach or advisor about any health conditions your child has.  Please talk with the coach/advisor about how to manage your child’s health condition when the child is involved in the activity; and also talk to them about how best to contact you if there are concerns or your child needs care.

You can support your child with their health condition by:

• Teaching your child about their health condition and encouraging them to participate in their own health management.

• Teaching your child when they should ask school staff for help regarding their health condition and what will happen at school if they have a problem with their health.

• Making sure the school has current contact information for multiple people that can be reached in an emergency; so if your child has a health problem at school, someone is available, if you are not immediately available.

• Considering getting a MedicAlert bracelet for your child that displays pertinent medical information; for more information on this, you can call 888-633-4298.
