It is strongly recommended that students take medications at home under the supervision of an adult. However, we recognize that there may be special circumstances in which a student may require medications during the regularly scheduled school day.
District Policy # _______

Medication is defined as prescription medication or over the counter (OTC) medication. No student may carry or take any medication at school without written authorization from the parent/guardian.

If your student requires prescription medication at school, we must first have a Physician Order.  An Authorization to Dispense form is required before the administration of any medication in the school setting. Orders must be renewed each year.

It is strongly recommended you contact the District Nurse if your student has a special health need. Please see the Nurses Links page for more information.
