Keep Your Student Safe and Ready to Learn!

Help us support your child's health without interrupting their school day! If your student requires any over-the-counter or prescription medication, Tylenol, or Ibuprofen at school, please submit an Administering Medication Form signed by a doctor (one form per medication). Having this form on file allows us to give your student what they need so they can stay comfortable, healthy, and in class.

• Emergency Meds (EpiPens & Asthma Inhalers): With physician authorization on the form, students can carry these with them. We strongly encourage high schoolers to self-carry due to after-school sports and activities.

• Where to Find Forms: Download the form directly from the TVS website and return it to the school nurse.

Questions? Reach out to the school office anytime—we are happy to help!
