ALL medications (including “over the counter/as needed” medications) will be in the health room and available for pick-up by a parent, guardian, or designated adult on the last day of school, June 7th, by 11:00am. If you need to pick up your child’s medication prior to the last day of school the office hours are 7:15am - 3:15pm.
***Please note: if your son or daughter is attending summer school do not pick your child’s medication up until the last day of summer school Friday, JULY 7th, by 11:25.

Health Action Plans as well as Medication Authorization Forms are located on our website (https://raymond.k12.wi.us/forms/) and will need to be updated, reviewed and submitted for each new school year. Please return these forms during the Open House on August 30th from 4:00pm - 6:00pm, or prior to the first day of school, which is September 5, 2023.

After the school year begins, your child’s immunization records are reviewed and submitted to the state for compliance. If your child receives any new immunizations over the summer please submit a copy during open house or to the school office.
Notify the school immediately of any changes in your child's health, medications, treatments, or contact information. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you and I hope you all enjoy a safe and healthy summer!
