Medications at School
What you need to know...
All students needing a medication at school must have a Medication Authorization form filled out.
IMPORTANT NOTE: No student should transport medications to and from school, this is the responsibility of an adult.
Prescription medications requires a doctor’s signature AND a parent or guardian signature on the medication authorization form, with the exception of inhalers where an inhaler sticker may be placed on the form, and the parent/guardian still signs.
Nonprescription medications do not require a physician’s signature but a form must be filled out & signed be a parent or guardian.
Students may carry their Inhalers and/or EpiPens with them with the approval of their school nurse (a form is still needed).
Please note: Medication authorizations must be filled out EVERY new school year and doctor’s notes do not carry over year to year.
