Medications in School

Students attending Herbert Hoover Elementary School follow the same School Board policies as other Neshaminy School District students.

• No medications, prescription or over-the-counter, may be dispensed unless the school nurse has an order from the physician and written parent permission on file.
• All medications must be presented to the nurse in a bottle properly labeled by a pharmacist and/or drug manufacturer.
• Medications must be delivered by the parent.  
• Students may only carry medication with them if the physician writes the order to include this instruction and a copy is on file in the nurse's office.
