From the Health Room
Please make arrangements to pick up your child’s medication(s) on or before the last day of school. If it is not absolutely necessary for this medication to be at school until the last day of classes, then please pick up the medication as soon as possible.
Any medication not picked up by the end of the day on the last day of school will be disposed of.
If your student will need us to administer medication next year, please have your healthcare provider complete the Medication Administration Authorization Form. All medication orders must be renewed each new school year. The BVSD Medication Administration Authorization form can be found on the BVSD Health Services Site under Student Health Forms.

Mental Toughness: Transitioning can be hard
As the school year comes to a close, many students and their parents may be feeling tired and ready for a break. However, finishing the year strong requires mental toughness. Mental toughness isn’t just about overcoming challenges; it’s a mindset and skill set that can help students and parents navigate the final stretch of the school year. Here are three easy tips to help you finish the school year with mental toughness.
1. Set Realistic Goals: Encourage your student to set realistic goals for the remainder of the school year. Whether it’s completing a certain number of assignments or studying for a specific amount of time each day, setting achievable goals can help maintain focus and motivation.
2. Prioritize Self-Care: Emphasize the significance of self-care even during hectic schedules. Encourage finding small moments for self-care, such as deep breathing exercises or brief access to the outside, to recharge amidst a busy routine. For parents, setting an example of self-care and supporting their children in finding moments of respite is crucial, even in demanding circumstances.
3. Stay Positive: Emphasize the power of a positive mindset. Encourage your student to focus on their strengths and past successes to boost their confidence. As a parent, offer words of encouragement and praise to help your student stay positive and motivated.
By embracing these tips and recognizing that mental toughness is a choice, both students and parents can navigate the end of the school year with resilience and determination. Remember, mental toughness is a practice that can help everyone reach their ultimate potential, not only in sports but also in academics and everyday life.
