Medication Policy Rules

Medication Dispensing Form

If a student suffers any form of an accident (ie, concussion, cast, use of crutches, extremity in a boot), that results in being “excused from gym”, the nurse’s office needs a letter of documentation.  This letter must come from the doctor’s office stating the reason and for how long they will be restricted.  Also, we will need a letter when the student is able to return to gym class.
