“Success for Every Student”
July 1, 2016
Dear Parents and Students,
I would like to welcome you to the 2016-2017 school year! I hope each of you is having
an enjoyable, peaceful and restful summer. This school year Overland will be the home
for approximately 2300 students and 250 staff members. Once again, I am proud to
announce that Overland High School was selected by The Washington Post in April 2016
as one of America’s Most Challenging High Schools for the second consecutive year.
Additionally, we have a lot to celebrate, a Boettcher Scholar, two Gates Millennium
Scholars, two Daniels Scholars, and two students scored a perfect 36 on the Colorado
state ACT. I want to thank our students and parents for your continued support and
aspiration for academic excellence at Overland High School.
As we continue to embrace our vision, “Success for Every Student,” it is critical we
continue to promote academic excellence and ensure our students have the necessary life
skills to be productive in a global society. The Overland Campus is a wonderful place for
students to learn, to develop socially and emotionally, and have a meaningful high school
experience. Our mission statement reads, “The Overland-Prairie community is committed
to providing innovative, educational opportunities which promote academic excellence and
empower our students to become leaders in our local, national, and global society.” The
staff at Overland embraces this statement without any apprehension, and we are
confident we can achieve this mission.
Finally, I want to remind our students of Overland’s summer reading program to enhance

Dear Parents of Kindergarten-12th Grade Students in Colorado Schools (School Year 2016-17):
Immunizations are an important part of our children’s and the community’s health. Colorado law requires students
attending a public, private or parochial school to be immunized against certain vaccine-preventable diseases. The
purpose of this letter is to remind parents about the need for back-to-school immunizations and to provide
immunization information. The chart on page 2 shows which vaccines are required for school attendance, along with
recommended vaccines which provide more protection against vaccine-preventable disease. There are no changes to
the vaccines required from the previous school year. It is helpful to share this letter with your child’s healthcare
provider or your local public health agency (LPHA) where your child receives immunizations.
Colorado follows the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices
schedule. This schedule is approved by the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family
Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. This is the immunization schedule which will
best protect your child from vaccine-preventable diseases and is the national standard for health care providers who
vaccinate your children. Please note: In Spring 2016, it is anticipated the Colorado Board of Health will approve a
recommendation that will require all students to receive their final doses of DTaP, Polio, MMR and Varicella (chicken
pox) vaccine before kindergarten entry and one dose of Tdap vaccine before 6th grade entry.
Starting July 1, 2016, parents/guardians seeking non-medical (religious or personal belief) exemptions for children in
kindergarten-12th grade must submit non-medical exemption forms annually. Medical exemptions only need to be
submitted once and require the signature of your child’s doctor or advanced practice nurse. To submit a non-medical
or medical exemption, go to www.colorado.gov/vaccineexemption and follow the instructions. Children with an
exemption may be kept out of school during a disease outbreak.
Parents may have questions or want more information about children’s immunizations and vaccine safety. Resources
for parents about the safety and importance of vaccines are available at: www.ImmunizeForGood.com and
www.colorado.gov/cdphe/immunization-education.
Colorado law requires schools to provide school-level immunization and exemption information to the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) by December 1, 2016. Immunization and exemption rates for
each school will be posted on the CDPHE website as soon as they are verified. Many parents, especially those with
children who can’t be vaccinated due to a medical issue, may want to know which schools are best protected against
vaccine preventable disease.
Please discuss your child’s vaccination needs with your child’s healthcare provider or LPHA and bring your child’s
updated immunization records to school each time your child receives an immunization. To find your LPHA or learn
about free or low cost vaccines, call the Family Health Line at 1-303-692-2229 or 1-800-688-7777. For questions about
school immunization requirements, please contact your school.
Sincerely,
Jamie D’Amico, RN, MSN, CNS

Immunization requirements will be strictly enforced for all students. Students
who do not meet the requirements will be denied attendance according to
Colorado Revised Statutes 25-4-902. There are three ways to be in compliance
with the school immunization law:
1. Student’s immunization record shows they are fully immunized with required
vaccines. A laboratory test showing immunity is also acceptable.
2. For the student who is catching up on receiving required immunizations, the
school will notify the parent/guardian that the student has 14 days to receive
the required immunization(s) or to provide written documentation of the plan to
receive the next required immunization(s) following the minimum intervals of
the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) schedule. If the plan
is not completed, the student shall be excluded from school for non-compliance.
3. Valid medical exemption signed by a healthcare provider or non-medical
exemption (religious or personal) submitted by a parent/guardian.

Estimados padres de los alumnos de kindergarten a 12.º grado de Colorado (año lectivo 2016-17): Spanish – k – 12th
La vacunación es parte importante del cuidado de la salud de nuestros niños y de la comunidad. Las leyes de Colorado
requieren que los alumnos que asisten a escuelas públicas, privadas o religiosas estén vacunados contra enfermedades
que se pueden prevenir por ese medio. El propósito de esta carta es proporcionar información sobre la vacunación y
recordarles a los padres la necesidad de que los estudiantes se vacunen al volver a la escuela. El cuadro en la página 2
muestra qué vacunas se requieren para asistir a la escuela, así como las recomendadas que brindan mayor protección
contra enfermedades que se pueden prevenir por ese medio. No ha habido cambios a las vacunas requeridas el año
escolar anterior. Aconsejamos que comparta esta carta con el proveedor de atención médica de su hijo o el organismo de
salud pública local (LPHA) donde su hijo recibe sus vacunas.
El estado de Colorado se adhiere al calendario de vacunación del Comité Asesor de Prácticas de Vacunación que depende
de los Centros de Control y Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC). Dicho calendario cuenta con la aprobación de la
Academia Estadounidense de Pediatría, la Academia Estadounidense de Médicos de Familia y el Colegio Estadounidense
de Obstetras y Ginecólogos. Dicho calendario de vacunación es el que mejor protegerá a su hijo de las enfermedades que
se pueden prevenir por dicho medio, y constituye la norma nacional para los profesionales de la salud que vacunan a los
niños. Importante: se espera que la primavera de 2016 el Consejo de Salud de Colorado apruebe un dictamen que
disponga que todos los alumnos reciban la dosis final de la vacuna DTaP, la antipoliomielítica, la vacuna contra el
sarampión, paperas y rubéola (MMR) y la vacuna contra la varicela antes de ingresar a kindergarten así como una dosis
de la vacuna Tdap antes de ingresar a 6.º grado.
A partir del 1.º de julio de 2016, los padres o tutores que busquen exoneraciones no médicas (por motivos religiosos o
personales) para los estudiantes de kindergarten a 12.º grado deberán presentar formularios de exoneración anualmente.
Las exoneraciones médicas deben presentarse una sola vez y deben llevar la firma del doctor o enfermero especializado
que atiende a su hijo. Para presentar una exoneración médica o no médica, visite www.colorado.gov/vaccineexemption
(en inglés) y siga las instrucciones. Es posible que los niños que hayan sido exonerados de vacunarse no puedan asistir a la
escuela durante un brote de enfermedad.
Es probable que los padres tengan preguntas o deseen obtener más información sobre las vacunas y su seguridad. Los
recursos para padres sobre la seguridad e importancia de las vacunas se pueden consultar en los siguientes enlaces:
www.ImmunizeForGood.com (en inglés) y www.colorado.gov/cdphe/immunization-education en inglés).
Las leyes de Colorado disponen que las escuelas proporcionen información sobre vacunación por nivel de grado y sobre las
exoneraciones al Departamento de Salud Pública y Medio Ambiente de Colorado (CDPHE), a más tardar, el 1.º de
diciembre de 2016. Se publicarán los índices de vacunación y exoneraciones de todas las escuelas en el sitio web de
CDPHE tan pronto sean verificados. Es posible que muchos padres, especialmente aquellos con hijos que no pueden
recibir vacunas por razones médicas, deseen saber cuáles son las escuelas con mayor protección contra las enfermedades
prevenibles por medio de la vacunación.
Hable sobre las necesidades de vacunación de su hijo con el proveedor de atención médica o el organismo de salud
pública local y lleve los registros de vacunación a la escuela cada vez que vacune a su hijo. Para encontrar el organismo
de salud pública de su localidad u obtener información sobre vacunas gratuitas o a precios reducidos, llame a la línea de
salud familiar (Family Health Line) al 1-303-692-2229 o al 1-800-688-7777. Póngase en contacto con su escuela si tiene
preguntas sobre los requisitos de vacunación para la escuela.
Atentamente,

Dear Parent/Guardian:
I would like to take this opportunity to acquaint you with the Cherry Creek School District’s procedures for
administering medications to students pursuant to school board policy JLCA, Student Health Services and
Requirements.
These policies are designed to ensure the safety of our students:
1. The school will have received written permission from the parent/guardian to administer the medication.
When such a request is made by a parent/guardian, a full release from the responsibilities pertaining to
side effects or other medical consequences of such medications also must be presented.
2. Medication will be administered by the school nurse, or by school personnel whom the registered nurse
has trained and delegated the task of giving such medication. (A parent is always welcome to come to the
school and administer medication to his or her own child.)
3. Medication shall be in the original, properly labeled container with the current date printed on the
container, and all other parameters required for medication administration (student name, prescribing
physician’s name, drug name, dose, route, time and/or frequency).
4. In some instances, at the high school level, students who demonstrate responsibility may be allowed to
carry their medications on their person and self-administer such medication in accordance with the current
pharmacy-labeled container, or in the case of over-the-counter medication, in accordance with the
manufacturer’s label. Students who misuse this privilege may be subject to disciplinary action per
applicable school board policies. Please contact your high school nurse for additional information.
The following guidelines shall also pertain to the administration of medication to students in the school
setting:
Rescue/Prescription medications: (Albuterol and epinephrine) should be kept in the clinic unless written
permission for a student to carry these prescription drugs has been agreed to by the physician, parent and
school nurse. This written agreement form is located in the school clinic and on the Health Services Web
page. It requires, in part, that the student has demonstrated the necessary maturity to keep it on their person.
Prescription Medications: Prescription medications require written permission for administration in the
school setting from both a healthcare provider and a parent/guardian. Most pharmacies are happy to provide
an extra labeled container so that a prescription can be divided and placed in a properly labeled container for
school use. If the dose or the directions change, a new form/container must be submitted.
Over-the-counter medications: Written parental permission is required for administration of over-thecounter medications. Since many medications resemble another in appearance, medication must be sent to
the school in the original manufacturer’s container with the label intact. If a student requires a dosage outside
the manufacturer’s recommendations, a healthcare provider’s authorization for the variation is required in
addition to the parent’s signature. Since aspirin has been associated with Reyes Syndrome when given to
children with influenza or chickenpox, medications containing aspirin may only be administered with a
healthcare provider’s and a parent/guardian’s signature.
Homeopathic/Herbal medications: These medications are not considered to be over-the-counter
medications, but require written permission for administration in the school setting by both a healthcare
provider and the student’s parent/guardian. Some homeopathic preparations may require a review from the
Cherry Creek School District Medical Advisory Board.
Transportation of medications: Parents/guardians are personally responsible for the delivery of student
medications to and from school, and should hand them directly to the nurse, building administrator, or other
school official. In the event an approved adult is unable to bring the prescription to school, that individual
shall contact the school and notify the nurse or other school official of the date the medication is to arrive,
giving the name of the medication and the exact quantity of medication included in the properly labeled
container.
Any medication sent to the school without the labeled container will be kept in the clinic or main office to be
returned to the parent. Additionally, any unused medication will be available for pickup through the end of
the school year by the parent/guardian. Any medication not picked up will be discarded. The schools will
not send unused medication home with students.
Planning ahead: It is recommended that any student requiring a medication at school or at home have a
seventy-two (72) hour supply kept in the clinic in the event of an unpredictable local emergency. Please
discuss this with your healthcare provider or the school nurse if you are wondering about your child’s need
for such an arrangement. Also, because health needs can change, all medication forms will need to be
renewed annually. They are available from your health clinic and the District web site at
cherrycreekschools.org.
Confidentiality of student records. The confidentiality of academic records are protected by the Family
Educational Rights to Privacy Act (FERPA). The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
(HIPAA) does not apply to schools or the health records maintained within the school nurse’s office.
Nursing Procedures: All medical procedures performed during child’s day at school require a “Permission
for Nursing Procedure” form to be signed by attending physician and parent/guardian. Procedures requiring
this form include but are not limited to tube feeding, tracheostomy care, suctioning and other medical
treatments. All nursing procedure forms shall be renewed annually at the beginning of the school year.
Individual Health Plans (IHP). The IHP is developed by the professional school nurse to address and
communicate the health needs of the student to school personnel with an educational interest in the student.
The IHP development and implementation by the RN allows sharing of necessary information and planning
for student health needs to maximize student access and participation in their education. All IHPs are
renewed annually at the beginning of the school year and as needed in response to a change in student health
status.
Communications with the school nurse are essential in ensuring your student’s health needs are addressed in
the school setting. If your student requires medication, nursing procedures and or an individual health plan
call your school nurse the week prior to school beginning to discuss the needs of your student.
We look forward to helping your student have a safe and healthy educational experience this year.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Oro, MSN
Director of Health Services
