medication

This is a reminder that parents/guardians must pick up any medication their child has in the school Health Office before the end of the school day (11:50 a.m.) on June 18, 2024, or it will be properly disposed of at the end of the day.

Planning for the 2024-2025 School Year

Medication orders must be renewed every school year. Any medication, including over-the-counter medication (OTC), requires a completed medication form. Medication consent forms may be found on the district website. Please submit Asthma treatment plans, Diabetes forms, Epinephrine medication forms, Medication request forms, Seizure Action Plans, and any other information related to the health care of your child prior to the beginning of the 2024-2025 school year. 

As the beginning of a new school year is always a bit hectic, the nurse in each school will be available a few days during the summer to receive medication and discuss health issues prior to the first day of school. Our school nurse will be available July 17, August 28 and August 29 from 8a - 2p. If you are unable to meet the nurse during these dates/times, please contact her via email (kmiladinov@htps.us) to schedule an appointment. Please note, the school nurse will not be available on the in-service days prior to the first day of school.  

In order to provide our nurses with the opportunity to review the orders and discuss a student’s specific treatment plan, it is best for your child to have the medication/forms in the health office before the start of the school year. Unfortunately, we cannot accept medication or forms on the first day of school. Delays in updated medication orders will create a delay in informing the teacher about students with food and health-related issues.   

If your child's health significantly changes over the summer, please contact our nurse, Kimberly Miladinov (kmiladinov@htps.us), so accommodations and a plan of care can be created.
