Medication: With few exceptions, it is not legal for students to carry or self-administer medication of any kind at school. All prescription and over-the-counter meds must be turned in to the office by a parent or guardian and administered per district guidelines. Students may not bring in their own medication. Signed medication authorization forms must be on file for both prescription and non-prescription medications. State law permits, students with a physician signed authorization on file in the school office to "self-carry" asthma inhalers or "epi-pens". For forms and further information, please review the "Medical Information" link on the district web-page. Questions? Please contact our school nurse, Karla Petersen at kpetersen@archboldschools.org

Student Drop Off/ Pick Up: Parents are asked to pull into a parking space for the purpose of student pick up and drop off on Holland Street (the north side of the building). Please note this village ordinance:

Law requires that students without a documented booster be excluded from school.  For additional information, visit www.archbold.k12.oh.us.  Click on the “District” menu, choose “Medical Information".
