Health Services

Common School Childhood Related Illnesses

Michelle Zaleski, R.N.

Helping families increase wellness in their school age children is an important part of education at Lake Wilderness Elementary School. A nurse serves as a District Health Coordinator to oversee health screenings, wellness education, and compliance with all state laws pertaining to school health. Students must meet immunization laws in order to attend school. Early in the school year information is sent home to assist parents in complying with the state immunization law. Children receive health screenings as follows :

Vision and Hearing
Preschool, grades K-3, and all students in special education programs

Dental
Preschool, grades K-6

Scoliosis
Grade 5

Parents are responsible for the care of a student in the event of an accident or sudden illness. Each school requests that parents provide emergency telephone numbers so that they, or another designated adult, may be reached during school hours. For specific information about Health Services call the district Health Coordinator at (425) 432-4404.
