The Brendel Bulletin

Hi Brendel Families,

Happy Friday! It was great to be able to see you at conferences this week. Thank you for meeting with your child's teacher. Even though conference week is long for staff it is a great way for us to be able to connect with you. We appreciate you taking the time out of your evening/afternoon to meet with us.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks,

Mr. Engleman

Medication at School

Our goal is your child’s safety and your help is needed to achieve this goal! Students are not to carry medication without orders per district policy.

All medication authorizations must be renewed at the beginning of each school year. The order is good for one school year unless shorter time frame ordered by physician. Authorization forms must be completed for both prescription and non-prescription medications.

• Each medication needs its own authorization
• Refill of the medication is the responsibility of the parent/guardian
• Expired medication will not be administered
• Action plans for health conditions such as Diabetes, Seizures, and Allergies must be completed every school year
• Unused medication will be discarded unless picked up by the parent/guardian on or before the last day of school
• FOOD ALLERGIES: Dietary restriction form is available on the Food Services department webpage, foods can be substituted with a form on file, including gluten free options!

Additional information and forms can be found on the Grand Blanc Community Schools web-site, Health Resources.
