MedicationIt is the parent/guardian’s responsibility for transporting medication to and from the Center. Students may not carry medication to or from the Center. If necessary, arrangements and procedures for using inhalers or Epi-pens will be coordinated by the Child Care Services Director and staff. All medication must be signed in on the medication permission form. The form will remain in the classroom and the medication must be brought to the office. It must be in the original prescription bottle and have a pharmaceutical label providing the following information:
1. Date
2. Name
3. Dosage
4. Instructions for administering medication
Please make sure that if your child is attending the summer program, he/she is well enough to participate in all indoor/outdoor activities.
If your child has run a temperature or vomited in the last 24 hours, he/she should not be brought to the Center. Your child must have been on antibiotics for at least 24 hours before he/she can come back from a strep throat or any other infection. A green or yellow discharge from the nose and/or coughing should be treated as contagious and the child needs to recuperate at home. A rash is also cause to keep a child from the Center. A child with a rash should be kept home unless there is a note from the doctor saying the rash is not contagious.
