Announcement from our school nurse:
There have been multiple, confirmed cases, of strep throat at our school. The best way to prevent illness is to wash hands frequently and to avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Good nutrition (fresh fruits, veggies, protein) and getting enough rest are also key components of staying healthy and warding off any illness. Some symptoms of strep include (but are not limited to): fever (100.4 or greater) Swollen, red tonsils (may have white patches on tonsils)/severe sore throat body aches headache stomachache fatigue general feeling of unwell (malaise) If your child has a fever, diarrhea, and/or vomiting, they are required by our school policy to stay home until any or all symptoms are completely gone, without help from medication, for a full 24 hours. It is vital that they stay home if they are ill, in order to help ensure that others are not exposed. Thank you for your continued efforts to help keep our kids healthy and thriving!!!

We can't wait for you all to come and see what your child has been doing the last month and a half at school! This week, we are looking at our 4th habit, Think Win-Win. When we think win-win, we work to find a way that makes everybody happy. Thinking win-win means we look at life through a cooperative eye, not a competitive eye. There is a time and place for competition, and times of conflict are not those times. If you look at the table below, you can see that there are 4 types of solutions to different conflicts. When we think win-win, everybody is happy. Here are some resources for Think Win-Win that you can use at home.

This week the habit we are focusing on is Put First Things First. Our students are learning that they need to do the important things first. It is amazing to see them work to apply these habits to their daily routines at school, and I hope they apply them at home as well!
