School Clinic Information
The Jackson County School System will no longer be offering over-the-counter medications to students.
Medications including Ibuprofen, Tylenol, Pepto Bismol, Tums, and Benadryl will no longer be offered.
If your student(s) will require these medications during school hours, the medication must be brought to the school and registered into the clinic by a parent/guardian.
No medications should be kept in a student’s possession while at school without a physician’s approval and note
If your child is out sick, please remember to turn in doctor/parent notes to the front office.
Click here to see the JCSS Attendance Policy for more information.
If you choose not to have your students screened, a 4400 form must be completed either by a physician or by a guardian using the opt-out portion of the form, and it must be returned to the school prior to October 31st.
Click here to access the 4400 Form.
