What is the procedure if my child must take medication during school hours?
If it is necessary for a student to take ANY type of medication at school, a parent or guardian must complete and sign a consent form. You may obtain the form from the Health Office. The medication must be in its original pharmacy container and should state: • the student’s name, • dosage, and • times to be administered. We will not give a student expired medication. We permit only medication that a student must receive during school hours, including cough drops and Tylenol. An adult must bring medication in person. NO child may transport medication to or from school. We keep all medication in a locked cabinet and dispense it through the nurse or by a responsible adult staff member.
