Medication
We’d like to remind parents of any student who is going to take medication in the Guidance Office, whether it be prescription or over the counter, that we are required to have a completed medication permission form on file. If it is a prescription, we must have the prescribing doctor fill out the designated portion of the form. We can not dispense medication to the student unless the Medical Form has been completed.
