Support Program. Student eligibility is reviewed annually.
Student Health
Clinic
The school clinic is open every school day, with the school doctor available twice per week and the school nurse available Sunday to Thursday. Students must report to their classrooms first and receive a pass from the instructing teacher to visit the clinic. Students may not visit the nurse without a pass. This includes break times and lunch. Should a need arise during these break times, the students should request a pass from a teacher or administrator. Students will only be seen without a pass in case of emergency.
Our female students are required to supply their own sanitary supplies, and should use these independently. In cases of emergency, the clinic will provide sanitary pads, however students should be prepared and not view the clinic as their sole means of supply. Parents will be notified if a student repeatedly visits the nurse for this purpose.
Should a student become ill during the school day she must request a pass to visit the clinic. The nurse will determine the nature and degree of the illness and if the student should be sent home. Parents will then be telephoned and requested to come to collect their child.
Absences of more than two days require a doctor’s note that is turned into the homeroom teacher. If the student has had a transferable illness, they are to see the nurse before returning to classes. The nurse can only administer medicine with written permission from the parents. Any prescription medication that is required during school hours must be registered with and administered by the nurse.
Prolonged Illness
Any student with prolonged medical issues must meet with their parents, administration, and the school nurse. The purpose of this meeting is to determine a health plan that will meet the need of the students. Parents must report any serious medical concerns and any medication that is taken consistently. This includes any psychiatric concerns such as anxiety disorders and any related medications.
Lice Policy
The school nurse or doctor regularly screen for head lice or nits. If a student is found to have head lice, the student will be discreetly requested to move towards the clinic for parent pick up. Students found with head lice or nits may not remain in the classroom, and may not return to school until they been inspected by the school nurse or doctor and have been found to have no remaining head lice or nits.

Communicable Illnesses
Students with any type of communicable illness, including but not limited to; the flu, impetigo, pink eye, strep throat, fifths disease,chicken pox, hand‐foot‐and mouth disease, ringworm, and others, are not permitted to attend school. The school will notify parents immediately for pick up. The students should remain home until all symptoms have been cleared. The only exception to this policy is the common cold.
Attendance Policy The attendance policy and procedures at AAM have been developed in accordance with the Ministry of Education’s Private Education Law. Student absence will be recorded and monitored by the administration of the school.
The school principal or designate is entitled to make a decision with regard to excused and unexcused absences. As per Article 48 – 2A: If the student is absent from school for no reason or for an unacceptable reason for 20 consecutive days or 25 non‐consecutive days during one school year, the student may be expelled from school. Parents are requested not to extend any school holidays for the purpose of travel. These absences will not be excused and will count towards accumulated school absences. Any legitimate absence for purpose of college visits or for medical reasons must be verified by appropriate documentation.

Ramadan will be considered unexcused and will count towards accumulated absences. During exam week for secondary, students who do not have an exam on a particular day will have an excused absence.
The irst bell will ring at 7:50 and students are expected to be at school by this time. Classes will begin promptly at 8:00 and any student arriving after this time will be considered tardy. Students who arrive late to school are expected to check in at the Reception area to receive a late pass to class.
Health and Safety
AAM takes a very pro‐active approach to the safety and security of the students. For this reason, we have several policies and procedures in place that must be adhered to. Please note the following:

Field Trips
AAM plans several ield trips throughout the year. Students must be in attendance at school by 8:00 am in order to attend. All students attending field trips must have appropriate permission forms and monies turned in prior to the day of the trip, as indicated on the field trip form. No student may bring in permission slips and/or money on the day of the trip, as our numbers must be solidified beforehand.

Students must be in good health on the day of the trip, and may be asked to remain behind by the school nurse, doctor, or any of the Senior Leadership Team, should they be deemed to be unwell. Students with prolonged illnesses may not be allowed to attend, or special arrangements may need to be made.
