Medication
When
your child’s health requires oral medication during the school day,
both prescription and nonprescription, you should send a written request
to the principal, using the District form, with written authorization
and directions from a licensed physician and/or dentist. School employees
are not allowed to give medication to students except under very specific
conditions and with appropriate training. Prescription medication must
be provided in its prescription bottle with directions, and nonprescription
medication must be provided in the original manufacturer’s container.
Both prescription and nonprescription medications must be brought to school
by the parent or guardian. Under no condition should such medicine, prescription
or non-prescription, be sent to school in lunch boxes or lunch sacks,
or with the bus driver. Please check with your principal for additional
details.
