      Important End-of-Year Medication Notice
      The end of the school year is approaching!  If your child has medication stored in the health office (including prescription/non-prescription medication, EpiPen, diabetic supplies, etc.), you’ll receive a medication form via email on Friday, May 16th. Please check your spam folder to ensure you receive it.

       

      Complete the form by Tuesday, May 27th to allow the nurse to send medications home with your child. If the form is not completed by this date, a parent/guardian must pick up the medication by 12:30 p.m. on the last day of school, May 30th. Any unclaimed items will be destroyed after that time.

       

      Controlled medications (e.g., Ritalin, methylphenidate, Valtoco, Adderall, etc.) must be picked up in person by a parent/guardian by 12:30 p.m. on May 30th. These will not be sent home with students.
