The Burlington High School health office is open from 7:30am-3:15pm during every school day. Our staff of skilled school nurses are available to administer medications, provide routine hearing and vision screenings, respond to emergencies as well as the every day aches and pains of the students. In addition we can help set up doctor/dental appointments, work through insurance enrollments and generally assist in navigating the health care system.

Any student with a special health condition such as Asthma, Diabetes, Seizures, Cystic Fibrosis or Severe Allergies to foods or bee stings needs to have a special health plan on file (see link on right side of this page). Student requiring prescription medications during the school day need to have a medication permission form on file and signed by both the parent and the physician (see link of right side of this page) indicating the medication, the dosage and any special instructions regarding administration. Both the special health plans and medication permission forms need to be updated every year.

We also need to have emergency forms on file for every student (see link on right side of page). These forms provide the health office with important information regarding health insurance, emergency contacts as well as the administration of Advil and Tylenol to students during the school day. This form needs to be updated and submitted every year.
