Privacy & Communications

Student health records and clinical visits are private and protected. All medical documentation is securely managed and stored within August Health, an Electronic Health Record (EHR) system designed specifically for school health services with strict data encryption and privacy controls.

The Health Center team maintains strict medical confidentiality. Relevant medical details are shared with school administrators, faculty or athletic staff only when necessary to support a student's health, safety or academic needs—and always on a strict, need-to-know basis.

We prioritize clear, timely communication with families. Parents are promptly notified whenever a student requires overnight infirmary care, off-campus medical evaluation, emergency services or management of a significant health condition. Routine, minor day visits are handled on-site without formal parental notification unless requested by the student or deemed necessary by our clinical staff.
