Medical Response
St. Albans Summer Programs will have either a school nurse, athletic trainers or outside medical professional available during all weeks of programming, to assist participants and staff.
COVID-19 *This section will continue to be updated. Information specific for 2022 will be made available*St. Albans will still be continuning/instituting certain protocols and practices, to ensure the healthiest environment we can, to include:

Health Forms
Unless otherwise necessary, we solely need the medical form, avaible through online registration portal, to be fully completed and submitted prior to your participant's first day of programming. *If you feel additional reference information is needed, you may email it to summerprograms@stalbansschool.org
Sunscreen
- The use of sunscreen, especially for sports campers, is highly encouraged. However, the application of sunscreen by staff must be permitted by parents via an addition to the participation waiver. If you refuse to grant permission for assistance, it means that your camper is capable of applying their own sunscreen and that you will ensure they have a sufficent supply.
- Scenarios in which staff assistance could be needed:
- Young camper using a spray or cream
- Camper's supply runs low/out or does not have
Epipens or other medical itemsIf your participant is old enough to keep hold of their medical items (and possibly self-administer), they are welcome to do so. If you prefer we keep hold of them til the conclusion of the week or program, please ensure the items are clearly labeled, with instructions if necessary, and have your participant give them to either the medical representative or staff member.
Food & Snack
We do not restrict the types of foods participants bring for lunch or appropriate snack time, including peanut products, however, we do ask that they be mindful not to share and to clean up themselves and their eating areas before engaging with others or shared items; as some may have sensitivites to certain food items.
