Medication Forms Update

If your child will return F2F (face-to-face) and needs to have medication administered at school, please download the form below and have your physician complete it. Only children who have a permission to carry form documented in the clinic can carry their medication. This form only covers medication such as an epi pen or an inhaler. This is a correction to the previous communication sent out. All other medication is to be brought to the school by a parent or sibling 18 years or older with the documented medication on each form signed by a physician. Over the counter medication must also be documented on a form and signed by a physician. Otherwise, they are in violation of the handbook policy.
