is quickly coming to an end; here are a few tips for the end of the school
year.
Have any Medication
in the Health Room/Clinic? Don’t forget to pick it up! All medication left in the Health Room after
students depart on the last day of school will be destroyed. A parent must pick up any medication in the
health room on or before June 23rd.
Students are not allowed to take home medication on the last day of
school.
Need your ‘Meds’
in Summer Camp/School? Did you know? … If
your student will be enrolled in a 2017 FCPS summer program, you may continue
to use their current Medication / Inhaler / Epi-Pen Authorization form(s) for summer
programs. Call the Health Room before the end of the year if you want a copy of
the student’s forms.
Medication
Drop-Off Date in late August! Medications
and Authorization forms will be accepted in the Health Room, during the Parent
Open House before the first day of school.
The exact date and time will be announced over the summer.
If you have
specific health concerns for your child, please let our Public Health Nurse
know as soon as possible. They work all summer
on School Health and they will be in touch with you before school begins. Contact Brian Hochstrasser, 703-300-0779 or
