*District policy dictates safe medication administration for students at school. All medications (including any product that contains medication such as cough drops and ointments), whether prescription or over-the-counter, must be:
Placed in a locked cabinet in the nurse's office (*with the exception of inhalers and anaphylaxis medications, see below).
Provided by the parent/guardian in the original, properly labeled container.
Over-the-counter medications, including homeopathic treatments, must be accompanied by a permit signed by the parent/guardian.
All prescription medications must be accompanied by an order or physician-signed permit before it can be given at school.
Transported to and from school by an adult if the medication is a controlled substance (eg, ADHD medications).
Please call or email the nurse if we can assist you with your student's medication needs.
