The school has no facility to care for sick children. In case of sudden illness or accident, the school will notify the parents/guardian. The parents/guardian must assume responsibility to pick up the child or send a prearranged substitute.
Medication
 he school staff will be glad to assist you in the administration of medication to your child while he/she is at school. We must insist that you follow these safety rules:
- Only prescription medication will be administered to your child. Non-prescription medicine, such as Tylenol, aspirin, cough syrup or vitamins, will not be administered by Joyce’s Toluca Lake Pre-School and Kindergarten staff.
- All medicine must be in its original container, with the child’s name on it, and instructions clearly marked by a physician or pharmacist.

Clothing Regulations and Personal Belongings
  e recommend children wear clothing appropriate for the weather, sturdy shoes for running and climbing and clothes that are conducive to independent toilet habits. Our program is designed to help the children be comfortable. For this reason, we cannot stress strongly enough the need, for children, to dress in clothes which allow for maximum freedom and a minimum of concern.
Each child attending Joyce’s Toluca Lake Pre-School and Kindergarten will be assigned a cubby where he/she can store jackets, changes of clothes, etc. All personal belongings must be marked with the child’s name for identification purposes. The following are necessities:
- Please provide a small blanket and a crib sheet for your child. These items must be taken home every Friday for laundering, and returned the following Monday, in order to comply with State law.
- All children should have a complete change of clothes in their cubby, including underwear and outerwear.
- Children not toilet trained will require extra sets of clothing, as well as personal items such as: six (6) diapers and one (1) box of wipes per week.
