Students with Health Conditions
If your child has a health condition that may or will require special monitoring, a health plan, and/or medication to be administered during the school day, please contact your school nurse.

Medications in the School
 
All medications should be administered at home, rather than at school, whenever possible. When medications are needed during the school day, the ECASD policy and guidelines must be followed. These guidelines are in place for the protection of all students.
 
For ANY medication (prescription or over-the-counter, cough drops) to be allowed in school, written authorization by a physician/licensed prescriber and parent/guardian must be on file with the school nurse. Medication management forms are available for your use on the ECASD School Nurse web page.
 
It is the responsibility of the student to comply with the school policies/rules relating to student alcohol/drug use.
 
The Eau Claire Area School District assumes no responsibility in circumstances where students bring and consume medication at school without benefit of the procedures outlined within the medication policy.
