No child is to bring medication of any kind to school unless accompanied by a note signed by the doctor AND parent. The medication must be delivered to the school in a LABELED PRESCRIPTION bottle. The label shall contain the child's name, the name of the drug, dosage and the physician's name. Pills in bags or unmarked bottles will NOT be given. If an over-the-counter drug is to be given, a doctor's order AND parent's permission are still required. The medication must have the child's name written on it and be in its original container. Physician & parent authorization for medication administration will remain in effect for one school year only. ANY change in dosage requires completion of a new Physician's order and parent request.
 

For safety reasons certain medications such as, but not limited to Ritalin, Clonidine, Adderall, etc. may not be carried by the student & must be delivered to the school by an adult. If a student must have their medication in their possession, it must be so stated in the Physician's order. We are here to meet your child's health needs. We will work with you, and your child's physician, to determine what accommodations need to be made. Please contact the health room if you have questions regarding medications or any health room procedure.  610-797-4107  Ext. 2520.
