Thank you guys so much!

MEDICATION TURN IN
You will not be able to send any medication with your student that does not go through the nurse!
You must turn in your medication beforehand with the correct paperwork.
MEDICATION TURN IN:
April 27th - 4:00-6:00pm
This medication turn in date will be for OVER THE COUNTER medication. We will take paperwork for Advil/Ibuprofen, Tylenol/Acetaminophen, Benadryl, Dramamine, Claratin, etc.
Advil/Tylenol pills will be provided by DMS Bands, but parents will need to bring filled out paperwork. We recommend for all of our band trip students without a parent attending to turn in an OTC paper for these basic meds.
Any other over the counter meds need to be brought with you in an unopened bottle.
May 4th - 9:00-11:00am
This medication is for those who need a morning drop off time slot. Please come to DMS and drop off with nurse Kemi.
May 9th - 4:00-6:00pm
This medication turn in date will be for prescription and scheduled medication. We would like you to turn in this type of medication at this time so that the nurses for our trip (Emily Poppell and Natasha Mayes) will both be able to meet you, see your student (or have a picture) and you can all talk with each other. If you have this type of medication and can’t make this date - you can come to one of the other dates, but the trip nurses will only be at this one on May 9.If you already turned in your medication that is scheduled medication (every morning, etc) on April 27th, we ask you to come by on May 9th also. We want you to meet the nurses and the nurses to meet you and your student.
Thanks!

TRIP ROSTER
Please click the button above and open up a spreadsheet where you will be able to see our trip roster, rooming combinations and walk-around groups.
In some instances, the walk around groups are different from the rooms - so please check, especially if you are a chaperone on the trip.
I can make changes without issue - but do not want to be making changes right before we leave for the trip (we need to be able to sort lanyards and tickets). So, please check it before our final meeting on May 5th!
