Nurse's Office

A registered nurse is on duty in our clinic each school day. During the school day, students must have a pass from a school official to visit the clinic. In case of emergency, the school official will use the information on the student enrollment card, so please have your parents keep this information updated. 

ADMINISTERING MEDICATIONS AT SCHOOL School Board Policy (in accordance with TEC 22.052) prevents nurses, teachers, administrators, or coaches from administering medications of any kind at school without proper consent. A student may NOT carry any type of medication with him/her except for students with asthma or life-threatening allergies requiring an Epi pen who have paperwork on file with the nurse in the Clinic. Medications are required to be kept locked in the Clinic. A written medication permission form with original signatures of both a parent and the prescribing physician must accompany all medication, including self-administration prescriptions for asthma or EpiPens. Each medication must be in its original container with an affixed prescription label listing the patient for whom the drug was prescribed, the drug name, and the proper dosage and administration route information. This includes over-the-counter medications. Medication and Treatment Forms are available in the Clinic.
