Final Itinerary
Please be advised that Carowinds does NOT accept cash payments on anything in the park. Students/Parents will need to devise a plan to purchase items (souvenirs, extra snacks, etc.). More information can be found HERE.
Regarding Medication for the Trip:
From Nurse Nichole:
We try to encourage students and parents to not send in Tylenol and Motrin for every student. If the student doesn't typically take medications daily, then they shouldn't take medications while on a trip. We follow the Hall County Medications Guidelines on field trips, the same rules as being in school; please refer to the handbook. 

With an overnight trip, if the student can wait until they are home to take meds, we highly encourage that. 

If the student must have meds during the trip, the following guidelines and forms must be completed and turned in prior to the leave date. We will not accept any medications or forms the day before or the day of the field trip. 
  • Should a student require over-the-counter medications while on the field trip, the parent medication form will need to be filled out, and a brand new bottle of the over-the-counter medication brought in to the nurse by the parent only. 
  • Should a student require prescription medications while on the field trip, the health care provider form will need to be filled out by the prescribing doctor, and the prescription medication will need to be dropped off to the nurse with only the amount of needed meds.  For example, a 30-day supply would be inappropriate for an overnight trip. The parent would only need to send in the amount of medication needed for the trip. 
  • If the student is self-carrying for rescue medications and has filled out the forms for the school already, I will copy those from my files. The parents do not need to complete the forms again. However, if they have not completed the forms, they will need to be completed prior to the field trip.
