Food Allergy Action Plan
Due to new State of Michigan regulations, if your student cannot have milk or any milk products due to an allergy or sensitivity, the school requires a signed doctor’s note stating that the student cannot have any milk or milk products at school. If you want juice to be the replacement for milk, the doctor’s note must include a request which states “100% juice” for the replacement. If the school does not have a signed doctor’s note, the student will be offered water as a replacement.
If a doctor has determined that your child has a disability and the disability would prevent the child from eating the regular school meal, the school will make any substitutions prescribed by a doctor at no extra charge. The doctor’s statement, including prescribed diet and/or substitutions, must be submitted to the Food Service Department at your school.
In the case of a student who has an allergy note from their doctor for the current year an alternative item will be given.
A Food Allergy Action Plan form can be obtained from the Health Coordinator at Schall School. For more information please contact Janet Weijola, Food Service Director, at 989-673-3165, ext 1901.
