    Students: If you become ill during the school day, please follow the protocol in the DHS Student Handbook 

    • Come to Health Services Room B 102 to see your School Nurse who will assess you for illness or injury.
    • Health Services will contact your parents/ guardians if you must be sent home. You will be given a "Leave Campus" pass from Health Services to exit through Security at the main entrance. 
    • If you leave campus without following these procedures, you will have an unexcused absence for classes missed and this will not be reversed.
    • Please do not have your parent/guardian call the attendance office about going home ill during the school day. They should contact Health Services directly at  224.632.3200.
