Estimados padres / guardianes:

Todos los años, todos los estudiantes de sexto grado de las Escuelas Públicas del Condado de

Montgomery son alentados a participar en Educación al aire libre. Outdoor Education es un

programa educativo ambiental al aire libre residencial de tres días y dos noches. La misión y el

propósito de este programa es proporcionar experiencias de aprendizaje al aire libre en relación

con el plan de estudios de MCPS para aumentar el contenido de los estudiantes y procesar el

conocimiento, nutrir la conciencia y alienta una apreciación y una administración para el medio

ambiente natural. En Outdoor Ed tendremos muchas experiencias de aprendizaje geniales, como

un estudio continuo, curso de confianza, formación de equipos, ubicación GPS y depredador /

presa. ¡Por la noche tenemos experiencias divertidas como un espectáculo de reptiles, una

caminata nocturna y una fogata con smores! Esta es una gran experiencia de vinculación entre

todos los alumnos de 6º grado y sus profesores. Los estudiantes serán supervisados durante todo

el viaje por los miembros del personal de Eastern y los consejeros de Montgomery Blair High

School. Eastern Middle School no lleva acompañantes a la educación al aire libre.

Este año, los estudiantes de sexto grado asistirán a Educación al aire libre durante la semana del

26 al 30 de noviembre. Los estudiantes asistirán a la Sesión 1: del 26 al 28 de noviembre o a la

Sesión 2: del 28 al 30 de noviembre en el Centro de Conferencias Skycroft, ubicado en

Middletown, Maryland.

El costo del viaje es de $ 76.00. También damos la bienvenida a una donación de $ 9.00 o más

para ayudar a pagar s'mores, comidas para los consejeros de la escuela secundaria y gastos

adicionales. Los cheques deben hacerse a Eastern Middle School. Si prefiere pagar en línea,

puede acceder al enlace a través de Online School Payments en el sitio web de Eastern Middle

School. Si necesita ayuda con la tarifa, infórmeselo al Sr. Menth o a la Sra. Rowe.

Los estudiantes serán asignados a sesiones de forma aleatoria, por lo que si tiene un conflicto con

alguna de las fechas, háganoslo saber de inmediato. Por favor, haga todo lo posible para ser

flexible con la fecha en que se asignó a su hijo. El día que su hijo se vaya, necesitarán una bolsa

de almuerzo. Si desea comprar uno de la cafetería, incluya el pin de almuerzo de su hijo. Más

allá del primer día, se proporcionarán todas las comidas y meriendas. Si tiene alguna restricción

dietética, comuníquese con la Sra. Rowe para obtener el menú. Opciones vegetarianas están

NOTE THAT MANY DOCTORS WILL HAVE BUSY OFFICES

THANKSGIVING WEEK JUST BEFORE OUR OUTDOOR ED TRIP SO

DO NOT LEAVE THIS TO THE LAST MINUTE!

If your child takes medication, and it is already in the schools nurses’ office, that

If you want to send your child with an over-the-counter medication (example:

Advil, Benedryl, Tylenol) you must bring the medication to the nurse’s office with

That medication also needs to be brought to the nurse by November 16, 2018.

ANY AND ALL MEDICATIONS SHOULD BE BROUGHT TO THE NURSE

BY AN ADULT, NOT BY THE STUDENT.

If you are sending your child with multiple medications, you need to fill out a

INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES

1. No medication will be administered in school or during school-sponsored activities without the parent’s/guardian’s written authorization and a written physician order. This includes both prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medications.

2. The parent/guardian is responsible for completing Part I and obtaining the physician’s statement on Part II. This is required every school year for each new or continuing order or if there is a change in dosage or time of administration during the school year. (A physician may use office stationery or prescription pad in lieu of completing Part II.) Information necessary includes: child’s name, diagnosis, medication name, dosage, time of administration, duration of medication, side effects, physician signature, and date.

3. The medication must be delivered to the school by the parent/guardian or, under special circumstances, an adult designated by the parent/guardian. Under no circumstances will either school health (DHHS) or school (MCPS) personnel administer medication brought to school by the student.

4. All prescription medication must be provided in a container with the pharmacist’s label attached. Non-prescription OTC medication must be in the container with the manufacturer’s original label. Physician samples must be appropriately labeled by the physician.

5. The first day’s dosage of any new medication must have been given at home before it can be administered at school.

6. The parent/guardian is responsible for collecting any unused portion of a medication within one week after expiration of the physician’s order or at the end of the school year. Medication not claimed within that time period will be destroyed.

7. Self-administered and/or non-medically prescribed medications are entirely the responsibility of the parent/guardian and not that of either the Montgomery County Public Schools or Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services. Medications without accompanying physician’s orders and parental consent will not be stored in the health room.

8. Students may not self-administer controlled substances.

9. A physician’s order and parental permission are necessary for self-carry/self-administered emergency medications such as inhalers for asthma and EpiPens for anaphylaxis. The school nurse must evaluate and approve the student’s ability and capability to self-administer medication. It is imperative the student understands the necessity for reporting to either the health staff or MCPS staff that they have self-administered their inhaler without any improvement or have self-administered an EpiPen, so 911 may be called.

10. The school registered nurse (RN) will call the prescriber, as allowed by Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), if a question arises about the child and/or the child’s medication.

School personnel will, when it is absolutely necessary, administer medication to students during the school day and while participating in outdoor education programs and overnight held trips, according to the procedures outlined on the back of this form.

INFORMACIÓN Y PROCEDIMIENTOS 1 No se administrará ningún medicamento en la escuela o durante actividades auspiciadas por la escuela sin previa autorización

escrita del padre/madre/guardián y sin una orden médica por escrito. Esto incluye tanto medicamentos recetados por un médico como medicamentos de venta libre.

2 Los padres/guardián son los responsables de completar la Parte I y de obtener la declaración del médico en la Parte II. Este es

un requisito que debe cumplirse todos los años escolares para cada nueva receta o para cualquier orden médica de continuación de un medicamento, o si existiese algún cambio en la dosis o en el horario de administración de un medicamento durante el ciclo escolar. (El médico puede optar por usar papel membrete o su bloc de recetas, en vez de completar la Parte II.) La información requerida incluye: el nombre del estudiante, el diagnóstico médico, el nombre del medicamento, la dosis, el horario de administración, la duración del medicamento, efectos secundarios, la firma del médico y la fecha.

3 El medicamento debe ser entregado a la escuela por los padres/guardián o, en circunstancias especiales, por un adulto designado

por los padres/guardián. El personal escolar de salud (MCDHHS) o personal de MCPS no administrarán, bajo ningún motivo, un medicamento que haya sido traído a la escuela por el estudiante.

4 Todos los medicamentos de receta médica deberán entregarse en un envase con rótulo de identificación generado por la

farmacia. Cualquier medicamento de venta libre/sin receta médica deberá estar en su envase original con el rótulo de fábrica. Cualquier muestra médica deberá tener un rótulo con las instrucciones del médico.

5 Para cualquier nuevo medicamento, la dosis del primer día deberá ser administrada en el hogar, antes de que pueda ser

administrada en la escuela. 6 Es la responsabilidad de los padres/guardián recoger cualquier resto de medicamento que no haya sido utilizado dentro de un

período de una semana después de haberse vencido la orden del médico o al final del ciclo escolar. Los medicamentos que no sean recogidos dentro de ese lapso de tiempo serán desechados.

7 Medicamentos de administración propia y/o medicamentos no recetados por un médico son enteramente la responsabilidad de

los padres/guardián y no de Montgomery County Public Schools o de Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services. La enfermería de la escuela no almacenará medicamentos que no vayan acompañados por una orden médica y una autorización firmada por los padres/guardián.

8 Los estudiantes no pueden autoadministrarse ninguna sustancia controlada. 9 Se necesita una orden médica y autorización de los padres/guardián para portar consigo y autoadministrarse medicamentos tales

como inhaladores para tratamiento del asma y “EpiPens” para anafilaxis. La enfermera de la escuela deberá evaluar y aprobar la habilidad y capacidad del estudiante para autoadministrarse un medicamento. Es fundamental que el estudiante entienda la necesidad de informar al personal de salud o al personal de MCPS cuando él/ella haya utilizado un inhalador y el mismo no haya surtido efecto, o cuando haya utilizado un “Epi-Pen”, para entonces llamar al 911.

10 La enfermera de la escuela (RN) se comunicará con el médico que haya originado la receta, como lo permite HIPAA, si se

presenta alguna pregunta relacionada al estudiante y/o al medicamento del estudiante.
