Health office donations needed
As you go through your child’s clothes when they grow out of things, would you please consider donating some to the health office? We keep a supply of clothing in the health office for spills, accidents, and other messes. We are in need of girls' pants size 8 to size 12 and boys pants size 5 to size 10.
On a similar note, if your student comes home wearing clothing from the health office, please wash it and send it back to school so that we can keep our supply up.
Thank you!
Becky Christensen, RN, Licensed School Nurse & Ashley Reed, BSN, RN
Weather changes
Since we have seen snow now we thought a reminder that we go outside for recess each day is needed. All students go outside each day unless it is raining or below zero. Please send your child to school with appropriate gear for the weather. When the temps fall and we have wet/winter weather please make sure your child has boots, snow pants, warm jacket, hat and gloves.

Friday, November 22nd, 10:30-11:30 a.m. at Elm Creek Media Center An opportunity to connect, gather feedback, and be available to answer questions. Have questions? Contact: Mrs. Ness at nesse@district279.org
