Happy New Year! I know, some friends and families have battled sharing illness from one member to another and THEN it starts again! I really am sympathetic. It is exhausting for the entire family. Some lower grades have shared illnesses but we have not had a school wide bout of same bug.
A couple of people have asked about hand hygiene, the school’s sanitation practices, or if there is a ‘bug’ going around. The school is cleaned daily. High traffic areas are sanitized multiple times a day. All staff daily attempt to model and encourage good hygiene practices. It is always good to question. They serve as reminders for vigilance and maintaining good habits.
Last year, I sent alerts when we had several students contract a particular childhood disease or illness. The last two times, I sent alerts; I later learned that most of the reported diagnosis’s [3 of 5] had been CHANGED by the doctor. Now, I am a bit shy about sending out health alerts. I would appreciate your feedback as to whether or not you want me to share health alerts and preferred method, one call message or note. Thanks
Last year I helped coordinate the playground build. This years’ project is investigating possible local grants for school projects. If you would like to help with grants such as: project planning, getting bids, or writing grants please contact me. Volunteers Welcome for this project, clinic office or student screenings. Donations of first aid supplies, paper products, OTC medications, and larger size girls and boys pants are appreciated. I am grateful for your support and trust.
Stay healthy, happy, and safe.
