Medication Policy
The Howard-Suamico School District has a district-wide medication policy. Students requiring medication at school shall be identified by parents to the principal or school office. Students are NOT allowed to carry medication on their person for their safety, as well as the safety of others. All medication will be dispensed from the office. A over the counter form needs to be completed for any over the counter medication. Prescription medications require a parent signature and physician signature on the prescription medication form. Medication will NOT be dispensed from the school office until ALL forms have been completed. Copies of the district medication policy as well as the parent and physician forms can be obtained in the school office. Medication needs to be sent to school in the prescription bottle for prescribed medicine and the original container for over the counter medicines and must be brought in to school by the parent. Please do not send medication in envelopes, plastic bags, other containers, etc. We appreciate your cooperation as this medication policy is strictly enforced. Please call with any questions or concerns you might have.
