Hello all!
I am drowning in paperwork and junior high sports clearances that I don't even have a handle on students with new issues uughh.
How do you go about sports clearances? Right now I have each roster where I put if the student is medically cleared to participate. My issue is that I am also responsible for their permission form for the sport. I think I'm going to suggest the coaches be responsible for their own permission forms so that I can just focus on the medical aspect.
Do you have clerical Staff and how competent are they? I have 1400 students to one nurse and a secretary who is not efficient. I have to constantly micromanage her. I stayed way past my time to enter physicals (I actually worked until her time) and she did nothing. Her excuse is that the paperwork doesn't get in the computer until november. That is unacceptable when I entered 3/4 of the 7th grade physicals during unpaid OT.
I have other things that take priority and think the health aide/secretarial staff should be more efficient PS there is nothing I can do about it
