Medication Rules

If your child needs to take medication at school (prescription or over the counter), it must be provided by the parent and be in the original, properly labeled container with the recommended dosage and directions.

A parent-signed medication consent form must accompany any request for medication. Middle School and High school students may carry cough drops that do not contain DextroMethorphan. All other medication must be kept in the clinic.

Students who carry and self-administer their inhaler for asthma, at school or school-related events, must have a note from their physician giving them permission to carry and self-administer their inhaler plus a parent signed medication consent form. All paper work must be on file with the school nurse.

Please contact your school nurse if you need additional information.
