Jurassic Park is a 1993 American science-fiction adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg. The film is set on the fictional island of Isla Nublar, located off Central America's Pacific Coast near Costa Rica, where billionaire John Hammond and a small team of scientists have created a wildlife park of cloned dinosaurs. When industrial sabotage leads to a shutdown of the park's power facilities and security, a small group of visitors, along with Hammond's grandchildren, struggle to survive and escape the perilous island.
The dinosaurs were created with groundbreaking computer-generated imagery and with life-sized animatronic dinosaurs. The film won more than twenty awards, including three Academy Awards for its technical achievements in visual effects and sound design. Jurassic Park is considered a landmark in the development of computer-generated imagery and animatronic visual effects.
American composer John Williams wrote the musical score.

"Sun Safety" message from Nurse Fiocca...
With the summer fast approaching, the I would like to send out a reminder on how to practice sun safety.
Please apply sunscreen ( 15 SPF or higher) to your children before school, especially if they will be attending a field trip or be outside for an extended period of time. It doesn’t have to be expensive, the Equate brand sold at Walmart, recently received a very high rating
Make sure your children wear hats, cover-up clothing and sunglasses when participating in outdoor activities
Avoid direct sun exposure when possible between 10 am and 4 pm. Seek shade!
Lead by example and practice good sun safety yourself
