SAFETY FACTORS REGARDING MEDICATIONS
We want children to learn that taking medication is a serious responsibility and should only be consumed when truly necessary and under the care of a physician.
A STRONG MEDICATION POLICY IS A STRONG DRUG POLICY.
Medication may not be kept in the classroom or administered by the teacher.
- Medication sent in plastic wrap, foil, jars, paper towels, or envelopes cannot be given; it must be in the original prescription container.
- Children may not carry medication on the bus, in their lunch boxes, or on their person.
- Medication can not be sent back and forth on the bus, nor is a child allowed to carry medicine to and from school.
- Parents are to bring medication(s) to the school nurse in the school clinic.
- Parents must provide all needed prescription medication; the school does not provide any medications, i.e., Tylenol.
