​​If your child needs medications during school hours, it is important to keep in mind the following information.

  • Prescription Medication Required – your doctor must fill and sign the Prescription Drug Medical Treatment form; parents return the form and bring the prescription meds to the school (more information below)
  • Non-Prescription Medication Required (e.g. Advil or Tylenol) – a parent must fill and sign the Prescription Drug Medical Treatment form; return the form and the non-prescription Medication to the school (more information below)

As part of preparing student files for every school year, a student Prescription Drug-Medical Treatment form will need to be completed if your child has special medical needs/requirements that our staff need to be aware of in order to assist your child, should the need arise.

  • This form must be completed every year and returned to the Westmount campus your child attends no later than the first day of school.
  • Student medications also need to be renewed every year and brought in to the Westmount campus your child attends in a sealed, labeled Ziploc bag or bags, no later than the first day of school.
  • At the end of the school year, medications need to be picked up or they will be disposed of.

A doctor’s signature is required on the form if:

  • your child has prescribed medication, life-threatening allergies, or a serious medical condition.

Only a parent signature is required on the form if:

  • your child requires non-prescription medications e.g. Advil or Tylenol. If you would like us to provide your child with non-prescription medication, please bring the medications to the elementary office or the mid-high infirmary in a sealed and labeled Ziploc bag, accompanied by a completed medical form.
