Students are allowed to wear protective gear (hats, sun visors and/or sunglasses) while outdoors at recess, gym, etc. Schools may regulate the type of sun protective clothing/headgear in accordance with California Education Code Section 35183.5. Schools are not required to provide protective materials. Students are also allowed to use sunscreen (over the counter) as an allowable sun protection measure for their outdoor activities while at school.
 
 

STUDENT SELF-ADMINISTRATION OF MEDICATION

Per the California Education Code, which is enforced by The Los Angeles Unified School District, students may be assisted with medications or can self-carry their own medication such as an asthma inhaler if there is written authorization from the health care provider and parent/guardian. Two forms are available for this: one is for "Self-Administration" and the other is for medication to be stored in the Nurse's Office. All oral medications (such as tablets or pills) must be stored in the Nurse's Office. It is important that we are aware of every student who requires medication and that the proper documents are on file in the Nurse's Office. This is required at the beginning of every school year. We want to keep your child safe. If you have any questions, please contact the Nurse at 310) 397-4234.
 
Request for Self-Administration of Medication at School: Completed and signed by the medical provider and parent or legal guardian.
