Health Services
The Health Services Department of New Caney ISD is committed to providing professional medical care to all students in order to promote a safe and healthy environment that fosters learning. Each school campus is staffed with a full-time nurse to provide school health related services.
In accordance with Texas Senate Bill 12, 89th Texas Legislature, which goes into effect on September 1, 2025, the district is required to provide notice of each health-related service offered at a student’s campus. A parent has the right to opt out and withhold consent for any of these services by submitting the Annual Parent Consent for School Health Related Services form. Consent will be implied/assumed, unless the parent/guardian opts out. Consent for services will be considered effective until the end of the school year or the parent updates their consent status with a new form. Our goal is to ensure the safety and well-being of all students while complying with new state regulations.
The following health related services are offered on the following district campuses: routine first aid for minor injuries, emergency health services, health assessment and disease prevention, referral and management of acute and chronic health conditions, care for students with special health care needs, immunization compliance, promotion of routine health care, annual state mandated screenings and providing community health resources.
If You Opt Out:
-
Your child will not be able to receive routine health related services from school staff members or the school nurse.
-
In the event of suspected illness or minor injury during the school day, you may be contacted to pick up your child from school, in order to provide the necessary care.
-
Emergency medical attention will be provided by staff as allowed by law.
