Since so many' parents and guardians -work, informing them of an early dismissal is a problem. For this reason, the district
tries to avoid early dismissals. However, w ’hen an emergency does arise, the Family Emergency Plan that comes with students'
registration packets is the key to where students are sent. It is extremely important that this slip of paper be filled out and returned
at tire start of the year. Staff members will be calling parents and guardians to advise them of the situation before tire buses leave
school. Be sure that we know where to send your child.
The following stations will be notified of any delays and/or closures:
RADIO:
KBOY, KCMX, KDOV, KMED, KRWQ, KMFR, KTMT, KSOR, KZZE
TELEVISION:
KOBI 5, KTVL 10, KDRV 12
Immunization Requirements
The law requires that all Oregon school children be full}' immunized, be in the process of completing their immunization
schedule, or be exempt for medical or religious reasons in order to attend school. A parent or guardian will be required to complete
a certificate verifying this information if the child has not previously been enrolled in the Butte Falls School District. If your child
is exempt for medical or religious reasons, he/she may be excluded from attending school during a disease outbreak for his/her
own protection. You may contact the Jackson County Healdi Department for more information about your child's immunization
needs.
Asbestos Management
The Butte Falls School District has completed the initial phase of tire Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) by
having all facilities inspected for friable and no friable asbestos-containing materials and having an Asbestos Management Plan
developed. Asbestos-containing materials have been identified in this school district.
The District is implementing response actions which include repair and removal of materials which have the highest degree
of potential disturbance. The asbestos management program is an ongoing effort and each response action is documented in the
management plan. Re-inspection of tire asbestos-containing materials is done every’ 6 months to assure the materials remain in a
safe condition.
Management plans are available for review in each building's office. Questions about the Asbestos Management Plan should
be directed to Jeff Gorman, Maintenance Director, and Butte Falls School District.
Medicines at School
The administering of non-injectable medicines to students is governed by Board Policy JHCD-AR. This policy covers not only
prescription and nonprescription medication, but also such items as aspirin, Tylenol, poison oak medications, and any' other
ointments and sprays. Per board policy, requests for designated staff members (office managers only) to administer medication
to students may' be approved by the district under certain specific conditions. These conditions and requirements are described in
detail in the student handbooks. If you have any questions you should contact the elementary or high school office manager.
Eligibility Guidelines for National School Lunch/Breakfast Program
All students in Butte Falls School District receive a free breakfast and lunch under tire Community Eligibility Provision.
School Visitations
If you wish to come to school and visit a class, please contact tire classroom teacher in advance. In some instances, testing or
special programs may' be taking place at the time you wish to visit. After you have your class visitation cleared, come to the school
office to sign in with tire office manager and receive your visitor's pass. For the protection of your children, all visitors must
