2022- 2023 Medication Policy

Medication to be given during the school day, including over-the-counter medication, must be delivered by the parent/guardian in the original, properly labelled container and accompanied by completed and signed Medication Permission Form. Medication forms must be updated annually and any time there is a change in the prescription. Schools do not stock over-the-counter medication. All medication needed at school must be provided by the parent/guardian.

Written authorization from the Healthcare Provider who prescribed the medication is required for prescription medications. Written Healthcare Provider Authorization is also required for non-prescription medications, including herbal/alternative medicinal products, when the request differs from age-appropriate dose and usage instructions on the manufacturer's product label. All medication authorized by a Healthcare Provider must be provided in the original pharmacy container labelled by the pharmacist who filled the prescription.
