All medication must be housed in the office. A medical form signed by a doctor and a prescription bottle must accompany all medications that need to be dispensed at school. For a student taking a short course of antibiotics the prescription bottle will be required, but no doctor s form is needed for the office staff to dispense the medication. There are no exceptions to this policy. For long-term medications we must have a new medical form each school year prior to administering the medications.
Doctors have the medical forms in their office.
Please contact the school if you have any questions. Toward this end all students are expected to demonstrate acceptable behavior patterns. Students at Yates Mill Elementary are expected to conduct themselves in a manner, which allows learning to take place and protects the physical safety of everyone. Teachers work closely with students to ensure that everyone is familiar with class and school rules. Special attention is given to acts of politeness, courtesy, respect, responsibility and other appropriate behaviors.
