Arms

  • Experimental: Intervention
    All participants will undergo an initial asthma assessment per the NAEPP-EPR3 (National Asthma Education and Prevention Program - Expert Panel Report 3) guidelines, as well as asthma education. Participants randomized to the intervention group will be prescribed the appropriate asthma therapy based on their assessment (i.e. providing 'asthma assessment \& management'), and receive the morning dose of their daily asthma controller medication at school on school days.
  • Active Comparator: Usual Care
    All participants will undergo an initial asthma assessment per the NAEPP-EPR3 (National Asthma Education and Prevention Program - Expert Panel Report 3) guidelines, as well as asthma education. Participants randomized to the usual care group will be provided with the results of their asthma assessment and be instructed to follow up with their primary care provider. They will continue to receive all of their daily asthma controller medication at home.
