of the person with AIDS and the disclosure of predetermined information should be made on an individual basis. The determination of whether an AIDS infected person can remain in the school environment is a medical decision rather than an educational one. ASSEMBLIES Several assemblies are held throughout the year. Many assemblies are made possible in part through the help of our PTA. Some performing groups, usually in the arts, are from outside our school while other groups such as River's Edge and RRHS student clubs and sport teams also visit. BEAR'S DEN Bear's Den is an activity center providing a variety of enrichment and reinforcement opportunities for the Goldwood Primary School students. Children work both independently and cooperatively with other students. BICYCLES/SKATEBOARDS Bicycles and skateboards are not permitted at Goldwood Primary School. BIRTHDAY PENCIL A child's birthday is important! Goldwood Primary School celebrates birthdays with a "Happy Birthday" pencil, which will be presented to your child by his/her classroom teacher. BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS Non-food items are encouraged to celebrate these special occasions (i.e. pencils, erasers, small toy). Celebrations that are absent of food items will help protect students who may have life threatening allergies to the ingredients contained in many treats. Additionally, this will help contribute to the general wellness of these youngsters. Please check with your child's teacher for convenient times for these treats to be distributed. Invitations to personal parties may be distributed at school only when everyone is included. This will help to avoid any hurt feelings. BULLYING AND OTHER FORMS OF AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR Aggressive behavior toward a student, whether by other students, staff, or third parties, is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated. This prohibition includes physical, verbal, and psychological abuse, including any gestures, comments, threats, or actions, which cause or threaten to cause bodily harm or personal degradation. This also includes intimidation and harassment based on any of the legally protected characteristics, such as sex, race, color, national origin, marital status, or disability, stalking, bullying/cyber bullying, intimidating, menacing, coercion, name-calling, taunting, making threats, and hazing. Any student who believes she/he has been or is the victim of aggressive behavior should immediately report the situation to the building principal. (See Board Policy #551701 for additional information) CHILD CUSTODY In all cases where custody of the child has been granted court documents must be notarized and submitted with a certified copy of a court order establishing custody or guardianship and/or explaining special circumstances on visitation. This is for your child’s protection. COMMUNICABLE DISEASES Observe your children closely each morning before they leave for school. If the following symptoms are present, your child should be kept home: Sore Throat Running nose Vomiting (as well as during the night) Earache Skin rash Reddened eyes Headache Cough Watering eyes Diarrhea Nausea A child with a fever of 99 degrees Fahrenheit or higher should remain at home until the temperature has been normal for at least 24 hours without the use of fever reducing agents.

In order to control an outbreak of illness at school, report communicable illness to the school office as soon as possible. You may call the school nurse any time you have any questions about an illness or medication. Questions frequently arise concerning exclusion from school due to communicable diseases. The following are guidelines for the more common communicable diseases: - Chicken Pox - A skin rash often consisting of small blisters which leave scabs. Requires one week exclusion following the appearance of the blister. - Impetigo - Blister-like lesions developing into crusted puss like sores. Requires exclusion for 24 hours after the initiation of treatment. - Strep Throat - Often may be accompanied by fever, sore and red throat, tender and swollen glands of the neck. Requires exclusion from school for 24 hours after the initiation of antibiotic treatment. - Conjunctivitis (Pink-Eye) - Redness and swelling of membranes of one or both eyes with burning or itching. Usually accompanied by purulent discharge. Requires exclusion from school 24 hours after the initiation of treatment. - Head Lice - Usually identified by the presence of grayish white "nits" (egg fastened on the hair, usually near the scalp). Requires exclusion from school until the first treatment is completed and all nits have been removed. The district maintains a "nit free" policy to provide evidence that treatment measures have occurred and to help prevent re-infestation.
