A Note from the Nurse
Nurse Dava
I hope you have had a happy, healthy summer! As we return to school next week, please remember that students may not have ANY medications in class with them. Over-the-counter medication in the original unopened container may be stored in the health room with written parental permission. All prescription medications must have a physician's order to be administered at school. Please email me at [email protected] if you need a medication permission form. Please bring all medications to Meet the Teacher or drop them off with the nurse or the front office staff during the school year. Below are some excerpts from the Student and Parent handbook. Please refer to the handbook, or contact me if you have any questions or concerns at [email protected].
I look forward to working with you this year.
Per the Student and Parent Handbook:
- ALL MEDICATION MUST BE IN THE ORIGINAL, UNOPENED CONTAINER and THE PARENT/GUARDIAN MUST COME INTO THE SCHOOL AND THE MEDICATION MUST BE HANDED DIRECTLY TO THE NURSE OR FRONT OFFICE.
- All PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION must have written parental and physician authorization before medication can be administered at school. Get a Medication Administration Permission form from the nurse or office to take with you to the physician’s office.
Students are not allowed to carry ANY medication on their person without physician permission, parent/guardian permission, and school permission to self-administer and self-monitor (SC Law S144). The ONLY medications that can be in the student’s possession (with proper authorization) are for asthma, diabetes, and severe allergic reactions. Other than those medications, all medication will be maintained in the health room. Medications that are state-approved for self-administering/monitoring are inhalers, insulin, and Epi-Pens for 4th graders and up. These medications must be authorized by the physician and school administration/ nurse before being sent with the student.

School Supplies
If you have a currently-enrolled child at LABCS and are struggling with being able to purchase items on the Student Supply lists, we received a generous donation of school supplies to the school.

There is filler paper, marble composition notebooks, markers, crayons, and colored pencils along with some other items.
Dragon's Uniform Closet

If you have dress-code clothes or LABCS t-shirts in new or like-new (no stains, rips, or wear) that you no longer need, please consider donating them to the Uniform Closet.
