Over the Counter and Prescription Medication Process for DCSD Students up to grade 6

No medication, including over-the-counter, can be administered without a school medication form completed and signed by both the parent and the doctor. All medications must be in their original or pharmacy-labeled containers. Preschool and Elementary aged children are not allowed to carry over-the-counter medication or prescribed medication with them. Never send medicine and/or vitamins to school in your child’s backpack.

You and your health care professional will complete a Permission for Medication Administration at School and Child Care Form if your child will need to take ANY medications at school. Each medication requires it’s own form. This includes over-the-counter medications such as Ibuprofen, Benadryl, Medicated ointments, and lotions. It also covers prescription medication as well. Call our Health Assistant at 720-531-3311 should you have any questions regarding this.

 

Over the Counter and Prescription Medication Process for DCSD Middle School Students

Students at the middle school level may carry over the counter medications such as acetaminophen, cold preparations, or vitamins, but should carry only a one-day supply as per policy. A Permission to Carry Form is not required for these products.

Seventh and eighth-grade students may assume responsibility for bringing to school and administering their own prescription medication providing they carry only enough for one day and have the self-administration Middle School Permission To Carry – Self-Administer Medication.  Students using poor judgment in carrying and taking their own medication will have such medication confiscated by school personnel, and parents or guardian will be notified. A structured plan will then be developed for the administration of the medication. Any parent or guardian who chooses not to sign the permission to carry medication form may request that a structured plan be devised for his or her student.  Please call the District Health and Wellness Department at 303-387-0260 or email health@dcsmontessori.org if you have any questions.
