Medicines

---

No school official, (including administrators, teachers, aides, etc.) will routinely dispense medication to students except in unique situations in which a child's health is dependent upon emergency medical aid.

If under exceptional circumstances a child is required to take oral medication during school hours and the parent cannot be at school to administer the medication, only the principal or the principal's designee will administer the medication in compliance with the following regulations:



Written instructions signed by parent or legal guardian will be required and will include:

1. Child's name;
2. Name of medication;
3. Name of physician;
4. Time to be administered;
5. Dosage;
6. Possible side effects, if known; and
7. Termination date for administering the medication.
