A Note From Nurse Kimmy: I wanted to send out a friendly reminder about the medication policy for District 97. Students may not possess or consume any medication, including over-the-counter medication (this includes cough drops), without written orders of a physician along with a parent/guardian signature authorizing the administration of the medication at school. Parents should make every effort to give prescribed doses of medication at home. A parent/guardian must sign the bottom of the form. You can locate this form on the District 97 homepage. It is located in Important Forms. Medications must be brought to the nurse in the original pharmacy prescription labeled container or a sealed as purchased over the counter container. Expired medications cannot be given at school. These forms must be updated yearly. Medications without an updated form cannot be administered in the school. You can fax this form Attn: School Nurse to 708-524-3037, scan and email the form, and/or turn the form into the health office. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call the health office at 708-524-3064 and/or email at [email protected].
