Medication at School
Does your student take over-the counter or prescription medication? If so, get updated medication orders from their physician that include the name of the student, name of the drug, dosage, frequency of administration, route of administration and the prescriber's name. Drop both the physician orders and medication off at your child's school for the nurse prior to the start of the school year. Do not send the medication to school with your child.
Immunizations
Please schedule immunization and physical appointments with your healthcare provider as needed. Missouri law requires children enrolled in Kindergarten through 12th grade to be immunized against certain preventable diseases. Required immunications include: DTaP (Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis) or DT (Diphtheria and Tetanus); IPV (Polio); Hepatitis B; MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella); and Varicella (Chickenpox). Two additional vaccinations are required for students in grades 8th -12th: Tdap (pertussis) and Meningococcal (Meningitis). Updated immunization records are required for students entering Kindergarten, 8th grade and 12th grade.
