The Nurse's Office is located in the Fresno
High Administration Building.

Students must report to class and request a
yellow transfer slip from class to the nurse's
office. In an emergency a student may be
admitted by the nurse without the yellow
transfer slip. If students are too ill to be in
a classroom, a parent or guardian a parent will
be contacted and the student will be sent home.
Repeated visits to the nurse's office will
result in a medical referral so that the problem
may be resolved.

Students and parents are encouraged to be
alert for any signs of communicable disease,
such as red eyes or rash, and are advised to
keep the student at home until well or upon
obtaining a release from the physician. This is
for the protection of all students and
staff.
