A copy of the policy and related pro- cedures has been sent to each family. It is our hope that the co-operative efforts of all will necessitate very limited use of the disciplinary policies included in this docu- ment. Additional copies are available by contacting the school. Brookside's school nurse is Ms. Connie Kuc. She is available at the school each Thursday morning. She may be contacted at other times by calling the Wingham Of- fice of the Huron County Health Unit at 357-2264.
