ALL DAILY PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS REQUIRE A DOCTOR’S NOTE AND A PARENT NOTE.

Children are not permitted to carry medication including cough drops. ALL MEDICATION must be administered from the clinic. Over-the-counter medication for less than 6 weeks must be accompanied by a note from the parent authorizing administration of the medication, reason and dose, time, and amount. Parents must deliver the medication to the clinic and bring only the necessary amount for school. ALL MEDICATIONS must be in the original container. All prescription medication must be in the original pharmacy container with the child’s name, medication date, and dosing instructions. A second bottle from the pharmacy can be requested from the pharmacy by the parent for the school clinic. Medications such as antibiotics 3 times a day or every 8 hours are to be given at home. Just follow a before-breakfast, after-school, and before-bedtime schedule. Click here to download the Medication Administration Form.

*There are no "stock medications" in the clinic such as Tylenol, Motrin, Tums, etc. Medications can only be sent for the student by the parent or guardian.

Parents and Students:

The See to Succeed program offers free eyeglasses. Please visit the nurse for consent forms. The program has limited availability, so students will be served on a first-come, first-served basis; others may be placed on a waitlist.

Call the clinic for more details at 832-223-3026

Remember if your child is sick:
Children must be free of fever (less than 100.0 degrees) for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications (such as Tylenol or Advil/Motrin) before returning to school. They must also be free of diarrhea for 24 hours before returning to school and eat and drink without any problems. If a child vomits two or more times within 24 hours, they must stay home for at least 24 hours to ensure they are not contagious. Please call the school nurse if your child has been diagnosed with a contagious condition such as pink eye, strep throat, chicken pox, head lice, impetigo, ringworm, flu or vomiting, and/or diarrhea.
