Medication & Injuries

If a child requires medication during school hours, parents must completed a form and have it signed by a doctor and by the parents before medication may be given. 

Students requiring the use of crutches, casts, or any other appliance will need a note from the attending physician authorizing their use at school. The note should include the physical limitations as well as the length of time involved. This note MUST accompany the child on the first day of attendance using crutches or other appliances. A notice of authorization to attend school will be issued from the office upon receipt of the note from the physician.

PLEASE KEEP YOUR CHILD’S EMERGENCY CARD UP-TO-DATE!
