Akron Central School has two Health Offices, one serving

Elementary students and one serving both the

 Middle School and High School students.

 

 

 

The Akron Central School District maintains medical services offices, staffed with fully qualified, professionally licensed registered nurses on duty throughout every regular school day. Students remaining for after school activities, such as sports, are under the supervision of an adult staff member. Professional registered nurses are not on duty after school hours; however, an athletic trainer is on site for athletic practices and athletic competitions. In addition, all members of the coaching staff are trained in first aid and CPR according to State guidelines.

 

In addition, the District retains the services of a physician to provide consultation for the administration and nursing staff.

 

Whenever an emergency may occur, either during or after school hours, every effort will be made to notify parents or other emergency contacts. In extreme emergencies and when the parent or other emergency contacts are not reachable, the students health and safety may necessitate transportation of the student to the hospital via ambulance. In those rare circumstances when the parent is unavailable, a staff member, if available, will accompany the student until the parent arrives.

 

The District expects every family to keep the school updated with emergency contact information, and that the information is up to date and accurate at all times. Accordingly, emergency contact information must be completed annually before the student is admitted to school in September.
