Important Notes About Medication Administration at Perrysburg Schools

  • Only medication that must be administered during school hours will be considered.
  • Medications indicated for anaphylaxis, seizures, or diabetes will also require an additional action plan, which can be found on the Perrysburg Schools website.
  • Medication must be brought to school by a parent/guardian. Student medications are not to be sent to school in a student's lunch box, pocket, or by any other means on or about the student's person.
  • Prescription medication must be received in its original prescription bottle or box with a pharmacy label indicating the student's name, medication, and exact dosage.
  • Over-the-counter medication must be in its original container and will only be administered according to the container directions.
  • Unless a medication is designated as self-carry, all medications will be stored in the health clinic's locked medication storage area.
  • Medications designated as self-carry should be stored in an agreed-upon location determined by staff, the student, and the parent/guardian.
  • A parent/guardian or other trusted adult must pick up unused medication by the last day of student attendance each school year. Medication will not be stored in health clinics over summer break.
  • Medication authorization forms must be resubmitted each school year and are available at any time on the Perrysburg Schools website.
