If your child does require medication during school hours, we can work it out. Please call my office and I will send a permission slip home.
Please remember ALL medication must be sent in the original, properly labeled container. If another container is needed, just tell the pharmacist it is for school. they will gladly give you another container.

Please leave the child's name, teacher and reason for absence. When a child returns, the absence must be verified by a note from the parent/guardian, even if you have called the machine. A doctor's note is needed when a child has been out for five consecutive days. Homework may be provided after three days of absence.
