Manzano Health Office

Please keep the health office informed yearly of any health conditions, medications, or concerns. We are here to support our students! Also, please ensure contact information is up to date in case of emergency.

Medications At School

If your student requires medications or procedures at school, the proper form must be completed and signed by a physician each school year - see health office form links to the left. If deemed appropriate by a physician, students may self-carry/administer medications. Forms are still required for students self-carrying. Students cannot self-carry/administer medications classified as "controlled" (i.e. most ADHD medications).

All medications provided for use in the health office must include the prescription label. Over the counter medications must be in a new, unopened bottle. We cannot accept expired medications.

Parents are required to pick up non-emergency medications at the end of the school year or the medications will be discarded by health office staff. Reminders will be sent home mid-May.
