HV Update 4-4-25

Dear HV Families,

The fifth graders got a little taste of all PV has to offer this week with a visit from the band, choir, guidance counselors, and principal. Fifth grade parents, please be on the lookout for communications from Mr. Seborowski, PVMS Principal, regarding course selection and other pertinent information as the students begin to transition to middle school.

Next Wednesday, be sure to stop by PVMS for the annual Trep$ Marketplace. The event will be held from 5:00 - 7:00 P.M. and shoppers will have the opportunity to purchase some amazing products fifth grade student entrepreneurs have developed. We are also looking forward to the fourth grade Bookwormy on Thursday evening.

Enjoy your weekend!

Best,

Allison

Please see the attached letter below regarding the NJSLA tests that will be administered in grades 3-5 this spring.

Spring has Sprung!... and so have Spring Allergies!

We're looking forward to the budding trees and blooming flowers, but some of us suffer from seasonal allergies! Symptoms include: itchy eyes, scratchy throat, cough, runny nose or congestion, and watery eyes. It could be hard to determine when to keep your child home. Follow these guidelines:

• Keep your child home if he/she does not feel well enough to participate in normal activities, even if fever-free.
• Keep your child home until fever-free for 24 hours without the need to take fever-reducing medication (fever is defined 100.4 and above).
• If nausea/vomiting- keep your child home until at least 24 hours after the last episode of vomiting.
• If your child has strep throat- keep your child home until at least 12 hours have passed since the start of antibiotic treatment and fever-free for 24 hours without the need to take fever-reducing medication and feeling well enough to participate in normal activities.
• If your child is Covid-19 positive, keep home and call your school nurse for the latest guidelines.
• When reporting an absence, please report symptoms and any official diagnoses.
• Obtain a doctor's note if your child is sick for 3 or more days.
• Remind your child about practicing good hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette
