Attention Mustang Parents:
If your student(s) have medications in the Health Room, they will need to be picked up before the end of the school year. Please come to the health room and request to have your medicine returned back to you. I cannot return medicines without your signature. They must be picked up by the last day of school or I will be forced to discard them.
Thanks for your cooperation! It’s been a joy taking care of your child(ren) this year! Have a wonderful summer!
