  • Medication Forms and Policies: Michigan law requires a doctor's signature for us to administer any over-the-counter or prescribed medication to your child. You must supply the medication to us in the original container. Please bring medication in person to a teacher or the school office; do not leave medication in your child's backpack, locker or lunch box.
  • Please note we have students with severe, life-threatening nut allergies. We ask that you read labels and do not send any nuts or nut products with your child for lunch or snack. Thank you for your cooperation!
