Procedures for the Release of Children

Each authorized person listed on the enrollment form as the parent or agent contact is allowed to sign out their child with proper ID. The parent or their agent will sign out on the iPad. If an unfamiliar person arrives to pick up a child, employees will check the person’s picture ID to ensure the person is listed in the child’s record or on the Authorization to Release Child Form. If an unfamiliar person arrives to pick up a child and employees have established that the person has not been authorized to pick up the child, the site employees will check the latest pick up information in Plano ISD Parent Portal on who can and cannot pick up the child. Children will not be released to unauthorized persons without proper ID or authority from the parent/guardian. In an emergency situation, the parent may call or email authorization for someone else to pick up their child. In this event, the parent/guardian must provide a physical description of the person, a driver’s license number, and the person’s full legal name. This information may be emailed to the site or assistant site manager. During pickup, driver’s license will be checked and staff will make a copy for PASAR records. The parent will be asked to officially add that pick up person to their list of authorized persons via Parent Portal. The Site Manager or Assistant Site Manager will ensure the caregivers follow the student release policy. Students will only be released for pick up directly from the PASAR desk. No student will be released from the playground or any other area other than the PASAR front desk.

6

Discipline and Guidance Practices

Behaviors will be in compliance with the Plano ISD Student Management Guidelines and the student code of conduct. Redirection and discussion of problem and solution will also be incorporated in making good choices. Director, Zone Leader, Site Manager and Assistant Site Manager will ensure caregivers follow through on discipline and guidance policies by conducting frequent walk-throughs of all areas in which students are using. Parental Communications will take place with parent/guardians and parents will be made aware of consequences if the children choose to make frequent inappropriate choices.

Field Trips

We will take field trips during Summer PASAR. Some activities will be on the school grounds and others will be off campus. Weather permitting, children with signed permission slips from their parent/guardian will be allowed to go on field trips. All students present will have to go on the field trip, but are not required to participate. Staff will follow transportation guidelines and procedures on all field trips to assure that all students are safely accounted for. Each child will wear a wrist band with school name and phone number for easy identification as well as PASAR t-shirt. The Site Manager will carry the PASAR phone for emergencies. The ratio on fieldtrips will be 1:10 for 4 and 5 year olds and 1:12 for the six plus age children. The following items will be taken on all field trips: A class list along with emergency contacts for each child, a binder containing allergy/medical action plans, a first aid kit, student medication, walkie talkies, PASAR cell phone, alternate transportation forms and water. A class list along with emergency contacts for each child, plus a notebook with the allergy action plans will go with the group and be in the possession of the Site or Assistant Site Manager. The staff will follow the transportation guidelines. On field trips, children will wear colored wrist bands for quick identification as well as a PASAR t-shirt. The school’s name and phone number will be written on each wrist band for easy identification. The site Manager will carry the PASAR cell phone for emergencies.

12

Water Activities

PASAR will not participate in field trips or be involved in water activities utilizing swimming pools at our site or on any off site locations. One water activity may be available for summer care. PASAR may have sprinklers for the children to play in at the summer site or during a field trip. Staff will closely monitor all of the children that are in and around the water activity.

13

Illness and Exclusion Criteria

Procedures for Handling Medical Emergencies

Sick and/or injured children will be referred to and cared for by the Site or Assistant Site Manager. The staff will assess the illness or injury of the child to determine the need to send a child home and/or call the parents. Depending on the seriousness of the injury the site staff will call 911. If 911 needs to be called, the Site or Assistant Site Manager will notify the parent/guardians and inform the proper DFPS state representative. If the parent/guardian has not arrived by the time of transport, the Site Manager, Assistant Site Manager, Zone Leader or Director will accompany the child. The staff member going with the child to the hospital will bring the signed medical release form located in the child’s file along with emergency information and any medication for that child. If a child is involved in an accident, an Accident/Injury Report will be completed for documentation. Copies of the report will be given to the parent, PISD Security, the school nurse, and one copy will be maintained in PASAR student records. DFPS form 7239- Incident/Illness Report will be used as documentation when a child is ill or an incident has occurred. The parents will receive a copy of the report. When filling out the report, employees will maintain confidentiality and only mention the name of the child for whom the report is being completed. Each blank on the form will be completed with information or an N/A will be documented in the blank if not applicable. First aid kits will be available in the PASAR area. Caregivers will notify the Site or Assistant Site Manager when first aid supplies need to be replenished. Children will not have access to the first aid kit or supplies. AED Drills will be conducted once per month and recorded on the AED Drill Report Form. If a child becomes ill with fever, upset stomach or any other health condition that cannot be attended to by caregivers, parents will be contacted, advised of the situation, and asked to pick up the child.

Immunization Requirements

Student immunization records are on site at each student’s PISD campus. From PISD Policy Book: The immunizations required are: diphtheria, rubeola (measles), rubella (German measles), mumps, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis (polio, hepatitis A and hepatitis B, varicella (chickenpox), meningococcal. Kindergarten and early childhood students must also show proof of Haemophilus Influenza type B vaccine (Hib) and Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7. The school nurse can provide information on age-appropriate doses or on an acceptable physician-validated history of illness required by the Department of State Health Services. Proof of immunization may be established by personal records from a licensed physician or public health clinic with a signature or rubber-stamp validation. If a student should not be immunized for medical reasons, the student or parent must present a certificate signed by a U.S. licensed physician stating that, in the doctor’s opinion, the immunization required poses a significant risk to the health and well-being of the student or a member of the student’s family or household. This certificate must be renewed yearly unless the physician specifies a life-long condition. For further information, see Plano ISD Policy FFAB(LEGAL) and the Department of State Health Services Web site. Education Code 38.001 permits an exemption from immunization for “reasons of conscience, including a religious belief.” In order to qualify under this standard, a parent must use only an official form obtained in writing from the Department of State Health Services, Immunization Branch. Parents also have the option of submitting a request for this form from the Department of State Health Services, Immunization Branch. The form must be notarized and submitted to the principal or nurse. Each child in the family must have a separate form.

Vaccine-Preventable Disease Policy for Employees

Full time Plano ISD PASAR employees are given the opportunity to receive a vaccine for influenza from the Plano Independent School District. All other recommended vaccines by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are optional and are not required for an employee to work in PASAR. A recommended adult immunization schedule may be viewed at: Government CDC website for Adult Vaccines .

20

Tuberculin Testing Requirements

Collin County’s policy requiring TB screening for employees in a day care or child care facility is unchanged for previous in that the county recommends TB screenings for all staff working in these facilities on hire, and annually thereafter. The county is no longer able to state that this testing is “required” only that this is a recommendation put out by the county. From Candice Akins, RN Tuberculosis Program Manager Collin County Health Care Services

Any parent/guardian must sign in and are required to fill out the required visitation form: Texas Education Code 38.022 Sex Offender Form, prior to the escorted tour or visiting your child in Summer PASAR. Parents may also contact the director Robin Garcia at 469-752-3780 to schedule an appointment for

an escorted tour. The staff at PISD Summer PASAR want to assist parents in knowing and understand their child’s experiences in summer care while enabling them to contribute most effectively to the child’s growth and enrichment. Parents are able to visit summer PASAR and accompanied by a Plano ISD staff member may observe how their child interacts with the caregivers, teachers and other children. Observers should remain inconspicuous whenever possible and are required to wear a Plano ISD visitor badge. As important events occur in your child’s life or in your family, please feel free to share these with the Site or Assistant Manager. Such events might include the death of a loved one or pet, moving to a new house, the illness of a grandparent or other significant person in the child’s life, or even the separation of parents. Informed personnel are better able to support your child and communicate with you about how your child is responding to these events. Information you share with the PASAR staff is confidential and will not be shared with others. We value parent ideas and input. We also value our time in the classroom with the children. We respectfully ask you to schedule private appointments to discuss any questions and/or concerns regarding policy and procedures of the operation. Our staff strives to provide many avenues of communication with parents. Please feel free to utilize voice mail, email and written notes as methods of communicating with PASAR staff. PASAR staff spends most of their time working directly with children, therefore, email messages will be returned as promptly as possible but may not be immediate. Please allow for a 24 hour period response time. If you need immediate assistance, please call the Site or Assistant manager, Zone Leader or Director. Email will be used to communicate most PASAR announcements. Maintaining a current email address on file on Parent Portal is imperative.
