Medications
Cedar Mountain Schools adhere to the protocol of the Redwood County Public Health Services. If a student needs to take a prescription medication during the school day, a medical authorization form needs to be completed and signed by the doctor and parent before the medication can be administered. Medication must be brought to the high school office in its original container along with the medical authorization form. Over-the-counter medications need to be in the original container and a note from a parent must accompany the medication. The school health paraprofessional will be in contact with Redwood County Public Health Services before any medication is given. We would appreciate your asking the doctor to schedule medication times so that medications may be taken at home. Due to concern regarding the transporting of student medications in school vehicles, parents are strongly encouraged to deliver their child's medication(s) directly to the school. This process will ensure that medications arrive intact to their correct destination. Any questions regarding this issue can be directed to Superintendent Bob Tews at 249-5990.
