Medicines/Inhalers
Students that are required to take medicine during school hours must have the proper paperwork on file and must be able to self medicate themselves. No faculty or staff member can give your child medicine. All medicine is locked in a cabinet in the school office. If a student has an inhaler, they must have the proper paperwork on file, but can keep the inhaler with them.

PLEASE READ
Remember it is illegal to run through a bus’ stop sign.
When the bus is stopped to drop off in the morning or is here to pick up
in the afternoon you CANNOT pass the bus or turn onto the street between the
Church and the parking lot. The bus
will have its lights flashing and the stop sign out when students are loading
and unloading. The drivers have
been instructed to turn your license plate number into the police right away. The drivers are looking out for the safety of their
passengers. ALSO you are not to
use your cell phone in a school zone!
