STUDENTS WITH ASTHMA

In accordance with the Act to Protect Pupils with Asthma (Ryan’s Law: Ensuring Asthma Friendly Schools, 2015) the YCDSB recognized that asthma management is a shared responsibility among students, parents, caregivers and the entire school community.

It is the responsibility of parents(s)/guardian(s) to advise the school immediately upon registration and/or when in receipt of a diagnosis of asthma. It is also the responsibility of the parent(s)/guardian(s) to ensure that all medical information pertinent to their child’s diagnosis of asthma is always current.

If your child has an asthma diagnosis, please contact the school office immediately so that the appropriate forms may be completed, ensuring school records are up to date.
