Dear Bryant Families,

As we welcome our students to a new school year (2024-2025), you may need to provide certain documentation to the health office to comply with district policies and state regulations. Please consult with your child’s primary care provider to complete any documentation pertaining to your child.

Medication Orders

If your child is on medication during the school year, new medication and medication orders must be brought to the nursing office at the beginning of each school year. Our school Medication Policy requires all medications, including over-the-counter medicines, to have a new physician’s order with the parent's signature each school year. The medication must be in an original pharmacy-labeled container and/or prescription bottle with the child’s name on it. If your child has Asthma, Food Allergies, Seizures, or Diabetes, in addition to the Medication Authorization Form, please have the physician complete the Action Plan.

Please notify the school nurse if your child requires medication for the 2024-2025 school year, as we may need to schedule a time for you to bring the medication and forms to the school. All forms must be signed, dated, and stamped by your primary healthcare provider with the parent's signature. Parents must hand-deliver medications with completed forms to the health office to be checked for full accuracy. No medications will be administered at school without the completed forms. Also, please check the expiration date on medications, as we will not accept expired medications.

Please use the following two forms if your child has an allergy that will require an Epi-pen and/or Benadryl:

Sincerely,

Mr. D, Principal
