Schools don't put kids on prescription drugs. Doctors and parents do.

Some schools are sending kids home and telling parents unless they medicate the kids they can't come back to school.

Last week in Phoenix a 3rd grader who was distraught over the death of her grandfather (and probably should not have been in school) had the school nurse medicate her a prescription antidepressant without her mother or doctor's permission.... last I heard the principal and nurse were on administrative leave and this was a big deal on our local news channels for several days.
