Guidelines for Medications at School

Washington State Law demands strict control over the administration of over-the counter and prescription medication taken during school hours. This includes cough drops, vitamins and supplements. Washington State regulations REQUIRE written permission and directions from the physician/dentist and parent/guardian for ALL medications (prescription and over the counter) given during school hours. NO exceptions. All medication must be in their original container with the name and dose of medication listed. Please contact school health room.
