Medication

If a student needs to have medication administered during the school day, a medication administration form must be completed and signed by a parent/legal guardian AND a licensed prescriber. This includes  prescription and over-the-counter/non-prescription medications, (even if the student is 18 years old.)  If the student needs an emergency medication such as an epi-pen, inhaler, or diabetic supplies, those medications may stay with the student at all times.  All other medications will be stored in the clinic.  Please click on clinic forms to retrieve a copy of the self-carry and general medication administration forms.  Remember: "new year, new form".  A current completed form is needed for each school year respectively.   If a student does not have a completed form on file, a parent/legal guardian may check into the main office to administer medication to their child.

END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR:  Please make arrangements to pick-up your child's medication by the last day of school.  ALL remaining medication will be discarded.


Immunizations

Please turn in updated immunization documentation directly to the clinic.  

Documentation may include a copy of an updated  immunization record or a signed statement from a parent/legal guardian or physician, (even if the student is 18 years old,) exempting student from receiving vaccine (s).  Please click on clinic forms to locate an exemption letter.

 At this time, immunization documentation  may be sent via mail, email or fax  with attention to the clinic.
