NOTIFICATION OF MEDICATION DISPOSAL
June 2023
Dear Parent / Guardian:
The last day of school is June 14, 2023. Medications are not to be stored in the school building over the summer. Medications must be picked up by the last day of school by dismissal time. Medications may be picked up prior to that date, please contact your school nurse to set up a date/time.
Please note that all medication(s) not picked up will be destroyed at the end of the last day of school. Medications are not kept for summer programs.
New medication forms can be found on the Pembroke Public Schools website under the Health Services tab for the next school year for you and the student’s physician/prescriber to complete over the summer. Medication forms expire at the end of each school year.
Per policy all medication must be delivered at the beginning of next school year by an adult. Medications will not be accepted from students.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call your school nurse.
Have a nice summer.
Sincerely,
Pembroke Public School Nurses
