Please note, Due to COVID-19, asthma nebulizer treatments will not be administered at school for the 20-21 school year. Please speak with your campus health staff or Director of Health Services for details.
A parent’s signature is required for all medications (prescription and non-prescription/over the counter) which are needed at school. For prescription medications taken longer than 10 school days, a physician’s signature is required as well. All medication authorizations should be renewed yearly.
Medication authorization forms are located on each campus in the nurse’s office and in the Medical Forms section below.
All medications are to be brought into school by an adult and in its original container or prescription bottle. For prescription medications please request your pharmacist to separate the prescriptions into two bottles, one for school and one for home.
Students are NOT allowed to have medications in their possession on school grounds unless prior authorization was made with your campus health staff, the District RN, and the principal.
If your child has an asthma inhaler or an Epi-pen please see your campus health staff to discuss your child’s health plan. It is important that the health staff be aware of your child’s medical needs/conditions. For your child’s safety, please make sure you discuss these with your child’s school nurse.
