All medications that need to be administered during school hours must have a Medication Authorization on file BEFORE the medication can be brought to school. This includes all prescription and over the counter medications, including Tylenol, Ibuprofen, any topical cream, ear drops, eye drops, vitamins and supplements. Local physicians are aware of the St Johns County Medication policy and will sign these requested forms. If you have any questions, please contact me at 904-547-8738. Please see the St Johns County School District Medication Policy below.

It is important that we work together to keep our children and school healthy.  Protect yourself and others by following these simple steps:

  • Wash your hands often with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds to help prevent germs from spreading.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth because the virus can spread when your hands touch surfaces that are infested with germs.
  • Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing and sneezing and throw away your used tissues, or cough or sneeze into your elbow.
  • Don’t share drinks, water bottles, eating utensils, cell phones with friends.
