24 Hour Rule
Students who demonstrate signs and symptoms of illness or a possible communicable disease should be referred to the school clinic for further assessment. Those with an elevated temperature of 100 degrees or above or those who vomit or have diarrhea must be isolated and sent home. The student must be fever free without fever-reducing medication for 24 hours before he/she can be allowed back to school. Those excluded due to vomiting or diarrhea must also be free of symptoms without the use of preventative medications before being allowed back to school. (Administrative Regulation FFAD)

Immunization Requirements
Katy ISD follows the Texas Department of State Health Services recommendation for immunization compliance in order for a student to attend school. The law requires that all students be as up-to-date as medically feasible in order to attend classes. The immunization vaccine requirements for each grade level are listed on the Katy ISD website. Exemptions to the immunization requirements are allowable on an individual basis for medical contraindications, reasons of conscience-including religious belief, and active duty with the armed forces of the United States. For further information, visit the Texas Department of State Health Services.

Medication Administration
Short term ( 15 days or less) and long term (15 days or more) medications are sometimes prescribed for students to be given during the school day. In such cases, regulations governing administration of medication during school hours must be strictly adhered to by school personnel. Any natural and/or homeopathic products, not FDA approved, will not be dispensed by school personnel.

Please keep in mind that KISD has a 24-hour rule regarding fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. Keep your student home until they are free of any of these symptoms for 24 hours.This is a NUT RESTRICTED school, not nut free. This means that students cannot have any type of peanut, cashew, almond, or any type of nut for a CLASSROOM snack. At lunch time, it is different as they are grouped into sections for food allergies. Parents, please remember not to send a NUT snack. If a nut snack is sent to a student, they may not eat it in the classroom.
Lice continues to be an ongoing problem. We no longer complete classroom checks for this. We only check students who are symptomatic. If a student is found to have live lice, they will be sent home to be treated. Once they are treated and have no live lice in their hair, they may return to school. If they have nits only, they do not have to be sent home, but parents will be notified so the student can be treated.
Vision and Hearing Screenings are done in the Fall of each year for Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, and 5th grades.
