Medication Drop Off
July 1, 2025
Dear Sunnymead Families,
I hope this email finds you well and you are enjoying your summer break! Before we know it the 2025-2026 school year will be upon us and I wanted to send a quick email in regards to medications, forms, and drop-off dates.
All students who are prescribed medications should provide the medications and appropriate completed form(s) to me prior to the start of the school year. Medication types include:
● Daily medications your child may take during the school day
● Emergency medications for specific health indications (ie asthma, allergies,seizures)
● Over the counter medications with a physician’s order
You can find the following medication forms on the school and district website:
https://www.htps.us/services/health_office/health_forms/medication_forms
● Asthma Treatment Plan
● Allergy and Anaphylaxis Emergency Plan
● Medication Request form
● Seizure Action Plan
These forms can be printed and brought to your child’s health care provider prior to the start of school. All medication orders should be dated after July 1, 2025. Please note that any medication held in the health office, even over the counter medication, will require a physician’s order. Orders for inhalers need to be on the Asthma Treatment Plan, orders for Epinephrine and/or Benadryl need to be on the Allergy and Anaphylaxis Emergency Plan, orders for Seizure medication need to be on the Seizure Action Plan. All other medications, whether daily or as needed, can be written by the physician on the medication request form. If you are having trouble locating the forms, please email me directly.
Additionally, if you have an updated physical exam form for your child, you can also send that to me electronically or drop it off to my office. This helps to ensure that I can stay on top of any changes and ensure a healthy and safe school year.
I will be in the Sunnymead health office to receive medications and forms on:
● August 18th, 8 am until 12 pm
● August 19th, 8 am until 12 pm
No appointment is necessary on those days.
If you are unable to make any of the times listed above, please feel free to contact me via email at nfantasia@htps.us I will be happy to find a mutually convenient time for you to make the drop off.
Medications must be brought in by a parent or guardian, must have the accompanying doctor’s orders, and be clearly labeled with your child’s name.
Please do not send medication to school with your child. If you would like
to schedule a phone conference during one of these days to go over your child’s specific health needs please email me and we will set up a time.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns aside from medications as well. I can be reached by phone at extension 3091 and my email address is nfantasia@htps.us
Sincerely,
Nicole Fantasia, RN

Dear Sunnymead Parents,
The Hillsborough Public Librarians came to visit Sunnymead today to share information about the 2025 Summer Reading Challenge. The Summer Reading Challenge at SCLSNJ is called “Color Our World!" This challenge will help children prepare for school in the fall, prevent summer slide, make reading a daily routine for all ages, and foster a lifelong love of reading in both children and adults alike!
To register for SCLSNJ’s Summer Reading Challenge, go to sclsnj.beanstack.org(This link opens in a new tab). Before you create a new account, make sure you do not already have an account from previous years. They also have a video about how to register and log in. You may also register in person at the library.
