Important Medication Reminders for All Students!
Medications MUST be dropped off at the school by a guardian.
Also:
If your child requires a rescue asthma inhaler, Epi-pen, glucagon, insulin, seizure rescue medication, or other emergency medication at school, then the school nurse must receive the medication and the medication order form prior to the first day of the new school year to ensure your child can attend school safely.
Our school does not dispense any over the counter or prescription medications (including ointments, inhalers, oral medications and eye drops) without a current written Medication Order Form from a licensed physician or health care provider.
All physician orders MUST be renewed at the beginning of the school year.
