Medication at School:

Students should only take medication during school hours or during school-related activities if it is necessary for a student's health and well-being.

Daily Medications During school hours:

When it is determined to be necessary, there are two documents which need to be supplied to the school health office prior to the dispensing of any medication. Both a signed Indemnification Agreement and Authorization for Medication Administration in School is required.

Medication is to be presented to the health office in a properly labeled pharmaceutical container. The label must state the student's name, the name of the medication, the current dosage, the route of administration, and the time or intervals of administration. The dosage on the container must match the dosage on the medical orders.

A student may carry and self-administer rescue medication as outlined in the District's policy. Medication may not be shared with other students.
