Wetting accidents

Specialties School

I work in an Elementary and have an occasional student pee in his/her pants. We assist in hygiene, change to clean clothes, and send a note home to parents informing of incidence and to ask to return the borrowed clothes. Unless its a frequent flyer, we do not call the parents. Do you feel we should call the parent instead of sending a note since its not a medical emergency or issue that needs immediate attention?

Because our clothing supply is extremely limited, I am quite stingy about giving out clothing to students. If it is a younger grade (K or PK4) and their parents are supposed to provide an extra change of clothing, I always call the parent because they should have been there anyway. And back to the loners...I've gotten them back dirty, smelling like LORD knows what LOL, so I don't even ask for them back. We don't have a washing machine and I'm not taking them home with me! :)
