ALLERGIES/MEDICATIONS
Medication Policy
Before any medication can be administered to a child, parents must first complete and return to the Director a Medication Consent Form signed by the physician. Permission by the physician is required for both prescription and over the counter medication. Parents must bring in their child’s medication in the original container with the drug dosage and expiration date. Prescription medication will be administered as directed on the original container’s label. Forms are available from the Director upon request. At the end of the school year all medication will be returned to the parent.
Allergies
Parents are asked to speak with the Director if their child has allergies to food, insects or animals. Sharing information about the severity of reactions, what is to be avoided and what to do if a child is exposed is encouraged. Proper forms must be filled out if medication is kept in the school. All parents are asked to comply with the school’s “nut free” policy when bringing in snacks, lunches and projects. Pets are not allowed in the preschool areas for allergy and safety reasons.
