Student Medication Requirements
If your student requires medication at school, prescription and/or over the counter,a medication form must be completed by the student’s parent/guardian and physician before any medication can be administered at school. School Board policy also requires that an adult bring the medication to school in its original container. A new state law allows students who need inhalers or Epipens to carry those medications with them at school. However,a back-up inhaler or Epipen must be supplied to the clinic in self-carry situations. All medication forms may be obtained in the school office/ clinic or on the Chardon Local Schools website in the downloads and links under health service forms.

She knows that her elementary-age students love hands-on and interactive activities. They have a natural interest and curiosity in exploring how things work.

The goals of the program are to introduce students to performing music on an instrument, working within a group of other musicians, and to help them progress to performing groups at the Middle School and Senior High level.
