Student Medication Administered on Campus
In preparation for our return to campus, if your student needs medication administered during school hours updated documentation must be provided to the Heath Office prior to your child coming onto campus. Our Health Tech, Sarah Pierce, is on campus 5 days a week to take in the medication and the necessary forms (to be completed by child's physician). Please reach out to Ms. Pierce, spierce@powayusd.com, to set up appointments to bring the completed forms and medications to campus.
Please note, we will not be able to administer medication to your child until we have the medication and completed documents brought in together, signed by the Pediatrician.
