NURSE’S NOTES:
MEDICATIONS: All student medications will need to be picked up by 5/30/25. Medications that are not picked up by this date will be discarded, including over the counter medications.
· If your student’s medication is a controlled medication, it will need to be counted by staff and signed out to you. Please allow/plan for a few extra minutes for this. PLEASE pick up your controlled medication and asthma medications, I HATE to throw expensive/needed medication away.
IMMUNIZATIONS: If I have contacted you about immunizations or exemption forms needed over the summer, please ensure these are completed by start of school. If your student is not up-to-date/proper exemptions forms received as of the first day of school, they will not be allowed to begin classes, per the state of Texas.
FYI: Nurse Kirkland will be out for the rest of the school year as of 5/19/25 for her son’s surgery. We will have another RN sub, Nurse Bohannon on campus.
