IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM OUR SCHOOL NURSE
Welcome to the new school year at AMS! My name is Joan Smith and I am the nurse at Abington Middle School. Parents who need their child to have medication(s) in school may drop them off at the AMS on August 21, 2025, from 8am – 2pm or make an appointment with me to drop off completed medical forms and the pharmacy labeled medication in its original prescription bottle. You may reach me at 781-616-2951 or by email at joansmith@abingtonps.org to set this up. As a reminder, all incoming new students need a copy of their most recent physical and immunizations to start school.
Thank you!
Joan Smith
