News from the Health Office

Medication pickup- All medication must be picked up by 12:00 PM on Wednesday May 26th, 2021. This is the last day of school and it is a half day for students. You can pick up non-emergency medications anytime at your convenience before the last day. If your student needs daily medications and you would like to pick up before the last day of school, the needed number of pills can be counted out and kept in the original RX container here at school.

Medication Disposal- Our school nurse will follow state guidelines and dispose of all medications not picked up by 1:00 PM on the last day of school. Medications cannot be kept in the health office over the summer. Thank you for your understanding.

Medication for 2021- 2022- If medications are needed for 2021-2022 school year, you may obtain new forms from the PSD website.
