Health Office Guidelines. Please remember the 24-hour guideline for keeping children home after an episode of vomiting, diarrhea, or a fever of 100.0 degrees or higher. This means that your child should stay home for 24 hours after the symptoms have subsided. Please do not treat a fever and send your child to school.

 

Medicine

No medicine will be given to students at Hopkinsville Middle School unless given to the school nurse and authorized by the student’s physician. Appropriate forms must be signed before medicine will be distributed, and will only be done by personnel trained to do so.  Students are not allowed to transport medicine or self-medicate.
