Dear Parents and Guardians,
As you know, students need to be healthy to learn, and Indian Township Elementary School is firmly committed to providing the best learning environment possible for your child. In response to this need, Indian Township Elementary School has chosen to partner with Avel eCare in Sioux Falls, S.D., to provide school health services. We will provide this service to all students free of charge, with the goal to keep students healthy and learning.
School health services are designed to promote and improve the health and wellness of students. Providing school health services assists students in developing and applying academic knowledge to help promote continuous growth toward becoming effective citizens within our society. The eCARE eSchool program assists Indian Township Elementary School in providing basic emergency care for students and staff; assessment and referral for all students; nurse oversight of medication; essential health services for special needs students; and health promotion and disease prevention activities which address wellness across the lifespan. With the philosophy that "healthy students learn better", professional school nurses address the physical, mental, emotional, and social health needs of our students on a daily basis and work with parents and community partners to best serve these needs.
For more information about school health services, call the Indian Township Elementary School at (207) 796-2362 or the eCARE School Health office at 605-606-0550.
