Zero Tolerance Policy

You're right, 'git...this does need some work. One of those areas is meds...a student can't even keep an aspirin...or even their rescue inhalers, handy. A couple of weeks ago, I was in the front office of a middle school and a boy comes in needing his Albuterol, which to an asthmatic, is sex in a bottle. The kid's in distress and his inhaler is locked in the office vault. So, first...while this kid is standing there wheezing, the secretary has to do a look-up in the system to see what his inhaler schedule is. Seems that he's not supposed to use the inhaler more than once every 4 hours (standard stuff). Seems he had his limit that morning. Next, the secretary called the student's doctor's office. The doctor's secretary told the school's secretary that he shouldn't he using it off schedule. And the wheezing student folds and walks out.
Oh yah...he was in gym clothes!
