Are you always so negative about everything? geez... Baltimore City has school nurses.. I grew up in Gainesville Fla in the 1960's... we had school nurses.. most schools are not allowed to let a school secretary give medication I know it was so when I was in school and when my kids were in school in fla in the 1990's.. either the school nurse, if there is one or the parents have to come in to give it.. that is law in florida.. if the school secretary does give out meds she is doing so illegaly.. I am a florida resident.. and reared my kids there..
