Weekly Newsletter

Websites

Visit the Aviation website at aviation.wiseburn.org or the Wiseburn district website at wiseburn.org.

Social Media

Follow Aviation Elementary School on Instagram @aviationbulldogs and on Facebook at Aviation Elementary School.

All personal devices—including cell phones and smartwatches—must remain off and stored in backpacks during the school day, unless a teacher provides permission for instructional use.

Unauthorized use may result in the following consequences:

• A warning
• Confiscation of the device, to be returned to the student at the end of the day
• A requirement for the student to check in the device at the front office each morning for a designated period

Breakfast and Lunch Programs

Both breakfast and lunch are available to all students at no cost to families. Our gates will open each morning at 8am. Students will be served breakfast from 8-8:20 am. Students who finish eating quickly will have supervised time on the blacktop before school begins.

Dietary Restrictions

Parents should explain this information when filling out their student's health information during registration. This information is then provided to our health clerk, who shares with our teachers as needed. Parents are always encouraged to contact their teachers and our health office directly with any changes or updates.

Incoming Requirements

Immunizations

All children entering Kindergarten or entering school from out of state must have, at the time of enrollment, written evidence of required immunizations. These include a D.P.T., Polio, Hepatitis B, M.M.R and Varicella. The law requires that your child be excluded from school if he/she does not meet these test requirements.

School Entry Physical

All California school children are required to have a copy of a school entry physical exam in their health record at school. The State form needs to be completed by your child’s medical practitioner and returned to the Health Office before completion of Kindergarten. The form can be obtained from the Health Office. Wiseburn School District does not provide physical exams.

Dental Check-Up

To make sure your child is ready for school, California law, Education Code Section 49452.8, now requires that your child have an oral health assessment (dental check-up) by November 1 in either kindergarten or first grade, whichever is his or her first year in public school. Assessments that have happened within the 12 months before your child enters school also meet this requirement. The law specifies that the assessment must be done by a licensed dentist or other licensed or registered dental health professional.

Medications

California Education Code Section 49423 allows designated school personnel to assist the pupil when required to take medication (prescription or over the counter) during the school day.

In order for the school personnel to assist a pupil with medication, the following legal requirements must be met:

Parent/Guardian must sign a statement requesting that school personnel assist the pupil in taking medication during school hours. The physician must sign a statement detailing the method, amount, and time schedules by which such medication will be taken.

Whether it is prescription or over the counter medication, the medication bottle provided by the parent must have the prescription label, complete with the pupil’s name and doctor’s instruction.

Parent request and physician’s statement must be renewed at least annually; new signed physician and parent statements must be submitted if the medication regimen is changed.

All medications will be kept in the office to insure that no medications are shared amongst students. Parents/guardians may bring medication to the school office and give it to their child at the appropriate time. Hollyglen office staff has the proper form for both parent and physician to complete and return to the Health Office.
