Institute Day - NO SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS

On Thursday, February 27th, all elementary students in D303 will have a half-day of school due to our Spring parent-teacher conferences. These conferences serve a different purpose than our Fall goal-setting conferences. Spring conferences provide teachers the opportunity to connect with families of students to discuss progress towards goals and areas for growth. The February 27th conferences have a much shorter time frame of 1:05 to 3:25. This means that teachers will only be able to meet with a few families that afternoon. Your child’s teacher will be sending a letter home with either a request to meet or a message stating that a conference is not necessary at this time.

Due to the 12:00 dismissal, students will not have lunch at school that day. All classrooms will take a snack break at some point in the morning.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out.

The Health Office keeps extra clothes on hand for bathroom accidents, messy weather etc. Please return any clothing your student may have recently borrowed from the Health Office. We are running low on pants and would appreciate any donations if you have any gently used pants your own kids have outgrown. Thank you!

Cold and flu season is upon us! Preventative measures remain the most effective

way to reduce the spread of influenza and other viral illnesses.

Students who present to the Health Office with a fever and/or feeling poorly are sent home. To prevent widespread illness in school, we recommend that your child stay

home from school if experiencing flu or cold symptoms. To decide whether or not to send your child to school, please consider the following guidelines:

CONSIDER KEEPING YOUR CHILD AT HOME for an extra day of rest and

observation if they have any of the following symptoms:

• Very stuffy or runny nose and/or cough

• Mild sore throat (no fever, no known exposure to strep or COVID)

• Headache

• Mild stomach ache

DEFINITELY KEEP YOUR CHILD AT HOME for treatment and observation if they

have any of these symptoms:

• Fever (a temperature of 100 degrees F or greater)

• Vomiting (even once)

• Diarrhea

• Chills

• General malaise or feelings of fatigue

• Frequent congested (wet) or croupy cough

• Lots of nasal congestion with frequent blowing of nose

TO HELP PREVENT THE FLU AND OTHER COLDS, teach your children good

hygiene habits:

• Wash hands frequently

• Do not touch eyes, nose or mouth

• Cover mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing, use a paper tissue, throw

it away and then wash hands

• Avoid close contact with people who are ill

Colds and viruses are the most contagious during the first 48 hours. A child who has

a fever should remain at home until fever free and for a minimum of 24 hours without medication. A

child who has started antibiotics needs to be on medication for 24 hours before

returning to school. Keeping your ill child at home will minimize the spread of

infections and viruses in the classroom!

Thank you in advance for helping make this year at school as healthy as possible.
