Superintendent Message – December 8, 2021

*Edited to add flyer

Well-Child Clinics:

This Friday, December 10th, the School Based Health Center(SBHC) staff will conduct another well child clinic at the PELC for families that live within the boundaries of the Pendleton School District.  A couple of things to remember regarding the School Base Health Centers(SBHC):

  1. These are a partnership between the Pendleton School District and Umatilla County Health Department, meaning the district provides space and UCoH runs and oversees the program,
  2. The SBHC’s have been in existence for approximately 20 years in Pendleton,
  3. The SBHC operate daily at Sunridge Middle School and Pendleton High School,
  4. This year the SBHC has been conducting monthly well child clinics at the PELC,
  5. The funds to support the SBHC’s come from the state, grants and private benefactors,
  6. There is no cost to families and/or students who are served at the SBHC,
  7. The centers provide a long list of services, both medical and mental health supports, and
  8. Among the most common services to students are sports physicals and immunizations required for school attendance such as Measles, Mumps, & Rubella, etc.

Recently a COVID vaccine was approved for children ages 5-11.  Like all vaccines, these are available through the school based health centers.  It is important for parents to know that for children under the age of 14, parents must give their permission prior to their students receiving any medical services through the SBHC or any other medical provider.  Some parents have expressed concern that the Pendleton School District was requiring children to get a COVID vaccine.  That is not true; that decision is a family decision.

If you have questions about the services offered or would like to make an appointment for your child, contact the school based health center at 541.966.3857 or 541.966.3432.  You may also direct questions to my office at 541.276.6711.

Yours in good health,cf

Chris Fritsch,
Superintendent

Mensaje del superintendente: 8 de diciembre de 2021

Clínicas de salud de niños:

Este viernes 10 de diciembre, el personal del Centro de Salud Escolar (SBHC) llevará a cabo otra clínica de niño sano para las familias que viven dentro de los límites del Distrito Escolar de Pendleton. Un par de cosas para recordar con respecto a los Centros de salud de base escolar (SBHC):

  1. Se trata de una asociación entre el Distrito Escolar de Pendleton y el Departamento de Salud del Condado de Umatilla, lo que significa que el distrito proporciona espacio y UCoH dirige y supervisa el programa.
  2. Los SBHC han existido durante aproximadamente 20 años en Pendleton,
  3. El SBHC opera diariamente en Sunridge Middle School y Pendleton High School,
  4. Este año, el SBHC ha estado llevando a cabo clínicas salud de niños mensuales en el PELC,
  5. Los fondos para apoyar las SBHC provienen del estado, subvenciones y benefactores privados,
  6. No hay ningún costo para las familias y / o estudiantes que reciben servicios en SBHC,
  7. Los centros brindan una larga lista de servicios, tanto de apoyo médico como de salud mental, y
  8. Entre los servicios más comunes para los estudiantes se encuentran los exámenes físicos deportivos y las vacunas requeridas para la asistencia a la escuela, como sarampión, paperas y rubéola, etc.

Recientemente, se aprobó una vacuna COVID para niños de 5 a 11 años. Como todas las vacunas, estas están disponibles a través de los centros de salud escolares. Es importante que los padres sepan que para los niños menores de 14 años, los padres deben dar su permiso antes de que sus estudiantes reciban cualquier servicio médico a través del SBHC o cualquier otro proveedor médico. Algunos padres han expresado su preocupación de que el Distrito Escolar de Pendleton estaba requiriendo que los niños reciban una vacuna COVID. Eso no es verdad; esa decisión es una decisión familiar.

Si tiene preguntas sobre los servicios que se ofrecen o si desea hacer una cita para su hijo, comuníquese con el centro de salud de la escuela al 541.966.3857 o al 541.966.3432. También puede dirigir sus preguntas a mi oficina al 541.276.6711.

Suyo en buena salud, cf

Chris Fritsch,
Superintendente
