    • Late start days: 9 a.m.-3:15 p.m.

     

    Health Announcements

    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 parent/guardian 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 Attendance about going home ill during the school day. They should contact Health Services directly at  224.632.3200.
     

     

    Annual reminders

    If your student has a known health condition such as asthma, diabetes, or food allergies please provide Health Services with:
