Please update your child's medication permissions on Power School

Dear Parents,

A few weeks ago, you were sent an email from our district technology department, requesting that you update your child's health information and over-the-counter medication permissions for this school year.
 If you have not yet done so, please log on and complete the permissions.  It will make it so much easier for me, and your child, if I have this information on hand.

Thank you for your assistance!

Flu Tips from the CDC

Q. What can families, students, and school personnel do to keep from getting sick and spreading flu? 


Families, students, and school staff can keep from getting sick with flu in three ways:
 

• Practicing good hand hygiene. Students and staff members should wash their hands often with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Alcohol- based hand cleaners are also effective. 
• Practicing respiratory etiquette. The main way that the flu spreads is from person to person in the droplets produced by coughs and sneezes, so it’s important to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder, not into your hands. 
• Staying home if you’re sick. Keeping sick students at home means that they keep their viruses to themselves rather than sharing them with others. 

Students, staff, and their families must take personal responsibility for helping to slow the spread of the virus by practicing these steps to keep from getting sick with flu and protecting others from getting the flu.
