Should your child bring energy drinks to school for snack and/or lunch?
We have noticed that many of our students are starting to bring energy drinks for snack and/or lunch. Though we do not have anything in our health policy prohibiting this, we strongly discourage students drinking energy drinks, especially while at school.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that adolescents do not consume energy drinks, yet between 30–50% reported consuming energy drinks.
