Medication in School

 

All medications, both prescription and/or over the counter, must be delivered to the principal’s office by the student’s parent/guardian in the original container. Any alternate means of medication delivery requires prior notification by the student’s parent/guardian, for approval by the principal. All medication that is not picked up at the end of the school year will be destroyed.

 

Any student that is required to take medication during the regular school day must comply with all school regulations. These include written orders provided by a Physician, Dentist, or Nurse Practitioner who have the legal right to write a prescription and written permission from the parents to administer the medication. (See the school nurse for details and forms for medication at school).
