Our school nurses provide a range of essential health services, including:

Medication Administration: Management of prescription and over-the-counter medications during school hours, and general first aid (with required documentation).

Emergency Care: Immediate response to medical emergencies and coordination with healthcare professionals when needed.

Chronic Condition Management: Support for students with asthma, diabetes, allergies, epilepsy, and other conditions requiring ongoing medical care.

Health Education: Guidance on wellness, nutrition, and preventive care.

Medications must be stored in the health office and administered by the school nurse, unless a student has been authorized to self-carry.
Emergency medications such as EpiPens and inhalers may be carried by students with proper authorization.
Students are not permitted to carry and administer medications in school on their own unless they have a doctor’s order
