Medicine Policy

PARENTS or GUARDIANS, The Putnam County School Board wants to inform you of the Medicine Policy. If you have any questions, please call your child's principal, school nurse or the program coordinator of coordinated school health.

If a child is required to receive non-prescription or prescription medication during school hours and the parent cannot be at school to administer the medication, THE PARENT OR GUARDIAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DELIVERING (IN PERSON) THE MEDICATION TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE. Only the principal or the principal's designee will assist in self-administration of the medication.
ALL MEDICINE MUST BE IN ITS ORIGINAL CONTAINER.
