“Teenagers who stay in more nurturing settings where they encounter less departmentalization, fewer teachers, and smaller groups experience higher achievement, attendance, and self-confidence than those who enter large impersonal departmentalized secondary schools.” Linda Darling-Hammond, The Right to Learn: A Blueprint for Creating Schools That Work

Middle School Health Forms

Middle School Medication Forms – all three forms are required if a student will be taking prescription medication at school and is responsible enough to carry and administer their own prescription medication.  Middle School Students are allowed to carry only one day’s dose of over-the-counter medication (not a full bottle) in an appropriately labeled container (i.e. Tylenol in a Tylenol bottle) – no paperwork required.
