They are trying to keep drugs out of children. I commend the school system for taking action, all you need is to have a parent note or doctors slip saying you need to take this medicine for a pre-existing medication.*
Its not really a violation of privacy, rather a stricter method of keeping drugs out of schools and out of children. If it upsets you so much, then I would transfer schools.
* I was refferring to the common OTC/ Advil/ whatever sets it off.
