Energy Drinks
We are seeing an increasing emergence of consumption of energy drinks during school hours, particularly of Upper School students and would like your support to stop this.
Energy drinks are usually labeled as such because of the presence of caffeine and/or significant levels of sugar. While they are sometimes marketed around claims of increasing endurance and performance there is no scientific consensus to these claims. Energy drinks have been associated with many health risks and youth are particularly at risk. Therefore we would like to ask that students no longer have or consume energy drinks on their way to school or during the day at school.
