MEDICATION

If a student needs to take medicine during school hours, the office must be notified. The medication needs to be sent to the school Administrative Assistant in a clearly labeled container with the student's name, name of the medication, exact dosage, and the time it should be taken. This will allow for students to take needed medication with appropriate supervision. State regulations FORBID school personnel from dispensing pain killers such as aspirin or Tylenol. Please refer to the Board Policy Manual.
