Roma Independent School District Seamless Summer Option Free Meals in School Year 2021-2022 Roma Independent School District announced its policy today that this school year, healthy meals will be offered every school day to all students at no cost. Typically, a student’s household must meet income eligibility requirements to qualify for free or reduced-price meals. However, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) issued guidance that allows schools to offer meals to all students at no cost for the 2021-2022 school year. Each school/site or central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed upon request.

While no application or eligibility determination process is required for your student to receive free meals this school year, the income eligibility requirement will likely resume in the 2022-2023 school year.

15th Anniversary Mass In Loving Memory Of

Ramiro Omar (Rambo) Fuentes Feb. 4, 1984 † Aug. 19, 2006

The Broken Chain We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Rambo, We Love You!

Anniversary Mass will be celebrated on Friday, August 20, 2021 at 6:00 p.m. at the Immaculate Conception Church

COVID IS STILL HERE!!!! STARR COUNTY SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS: Stay 6 feet or more

away from others whenever possible, Wear face covering, Wash your hands often, Disinfect often-touched surfaces

Physicians Encourage Masking and Vaccination of Students Statement by Texas Medical Association (TMA) President E. Linda Villarreal, MD; Texas Pediatric Society (TPS) President Seth D. Kaplan, MD; and Texas Public Health Coalition (TPHC) Chair Jason V. Terk, MD, as Texans plan for kids to return to school. The physician and health care groups are calling for children to be protected from COVID-19 due to spikes in cases and hospitalizations from the COVID-19 delta variant. They recommend parents and families follow new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines for masking everyone in schools, grades K-12 – regardless of vaccination status – and to vaccinate all children aged 12 and up who can receive the COVID-19 vaccine, to protect them and their families.

“As students head back to school this fall, physicians urge Texans to take steps to safeguard children from surging COVID-19 infections. We must defend children by vaccinating those aged 12 and up who can receive the COVID-19 shot, and by urging mask-wearing for everyone in schools to protect those who can’t be vaccinated.

“The pandemic has not ended – Gov. Greg Abbott renewed Texas’ disaster declaration on July 1 – and we physicians see it’s worsening as COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths increase once again, mostly in unvaccinated Texans.

“Let’s face it; if we don’t take action, the more infectious COVID-19 delta variant will spread among students when they gather together in schools.

We urge use of every tool in our toolkit to protect children and their families from COVID-19.

Those tools include vaccinating everyone who is eligible and getting all students to wear a mask to prevent spread of disease to others, especially those who cannot get the shot’s defense from the virus.

“We want and need to have our children return to schools where they can learn and thrive. But we must ensure they are safe from disease spread to avoid outbreaks and disruptions that could keep kids out of school.”

The physicians also suggest children are caught up on all vaccinations in preparation for school.

About TMA: TMA is the largest state medical society in the nation, representing more than 55,000 physician and medical student members. It is located in Austin and has 110 component county medical societies around the state. TMA’s key objective since 1853 is to improve the health of all Texans.

About TPS: TPS, the Texas Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, is the premier state professional nonprofit organization of over 4,500 Texas pediatricians and medical students. TPS believes that the most important resource of the State of Texas is its children and pledges its efforts to promote their health and welfare.

About TPHC: TPHC is a coalition of more than 30 health professional organizations and health-focused organizations dedicated to disease prevention and health promotion. The coalition works to reduce preventable disease by advancing effective public policies that promote a safe and healthy environment and healthy behaviors for all Texas residents.

A note from the doctor’s office health problem.

Emergency rooms are perfect for emergency situations.

Go straight to a hospital if you have chest pain, difficulty breathing, stroke symptoms, severe bleeding, or trauma. However, if your condition is non-life threatening, a primary care clinic can provide you medical attention.

Visit your primary care physician for common conditions such as: earaches and infections; minor cuts and sprains; fever and flu symptoms; cough, cold and When do you go to the sore throat; allergies; and rash emergency room? or skin irritations. Convenient The difference in clinical access to near and fast emergency services provided at a primary medical care, makes it easy to care clinic and emergency room decide to go visit the emergency are related to the severity of the

room close to your neighborhood in case of an unplanned illness or injury. Choosing an emergency department that is affiliated with a hospital system is even better because they will have physician specialists available to transition your care to if the need arises.

Understanding the difference between an emergent issue and a medical condition that can be treated at a primary care clinic, will save you time, money and allow you to receive the treatment needed in a quality manner. DHR Health is proud to provide quality care in Starr County Memorial Hospital in order to keep patients close to home.
