- Medication at School  Medication Advisory, CA Dept. ED. State law and district policy require students to have a signed parent request and MD order for any medication including over the counter substances if medication is needed at school. The student may carry and self-administer the medication if so requested by MD and parent. The medication order must be on file in the health office prior to any medication being on campus for students. We will be happy to work with you to FAX the form to the doctor for the MD order. Please have your student come to the office for the form if medication is needed at school.  Medication can also be kept in the health office in locked drawer and administered as ordered by MD.  A calendar log is kept for each student detailing date and time medication is given at school by school personnel.
