Student Health and Wellness

An Individual Seizure Action Plan (ISAP) must be developed by a medical professional in consultation with parents and signed by both individuals. This action plan must include specified information such as recommended care, symptoms, accommodations, prescribed rescue medication, and contact information for medical assistance. There are seizure action plan templates that can be found online, or ISAPs can be a written document created with your healthcare provider. Click here for an approved sample of a Seizure Action Plan (PDF)

You may exercise your parental right to decline having an ISAP on file for your student. If you decline submitting an ISAP, please print and sign this form (PDF) and send it to our Student Health and Wellness Coordinator at [email protected]. Please note that if your student were to experience a seizure around school personnel, 911 and emergency services will be contacted.

Most of our students participate in end of year testing at in-person testing locations across Florida. Due to the nature of the medical condition, it is important for school staff to be aware of the student’s diagnosis and what necessary steps they will need to take to ensure the student’s safety. Virtual teachers who have frequent interaction with these students will also know who to contact if they should witness the student experience severe symptoms related to their condition.

Once we have received the document, necessary school personnel will be notified of the unique health care services required by the student and how to respond in emergency situations. School personnel include staff who have regular contact with a student who has an individualized wellness plan and the school nurse or trained staff at in-person testing locations. The notification of the active plan will include the student's condition, information from the plan on how to provide the recommended care if symptoms of the condition are present, and parental and emergency contact information.

You may email our Student Health and Wellness Coordinator at [email protected] with your completed plan. The plan will be uploaded to the student’s file. The plan will remain in effect until a parent submits a revised plan.

Please contact our Student Health and Wellness Coordinator with information detailing your student’s medical condition. If the student needs any academic accommodations, a referral to the 504 team may be entered.
