Husky Happenings

What a crazy week we had last week!!! Hopefully we will be back on track this week and we won't have too many weather issues. I am also a little sad that we won't be watching our Lions play today! I apologize for this note not coming out until today but I also caught the sick bug that has been going around the school. This time of year is always difficult with lots of differnet illnesses going around. If your child exhibits any symptoms of illness, such as fever, cough, sore throat, or gastrointestinal issues, please keep them home to rest and recover. Students may return to school after being fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medication. For other illnesses, please consult with your healthcare provider on when it would be appropriate for your child to return to school.

This week in the Positivity Project we will discuss the character strength of Perseverance. Perseverance means completing what you start despite obstacles. It means never giving up! Please read the letter and talk about this trait with your family during the week to reinforce what we are talking about in school.

Please feel free to email or DOJO me with questions you might have and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Principal

Please look at our NEWLY updated picture of how morning drop off will happen from now on. There is a DROP OFF zone where you will pull up to and drop off your child/children. There will be an adult there to open the car door and get your child out. You will need to stay in your car. If you choose to get out of your vehicle, please PARK IN A PARKING SPOT. Drop off will ONLY happen in the drop off zone. Please do not let your child out of the car unless they are in the drop off spot. This plan will work great if we all follow it and if we have patience. Remember, drop off will not occur until 8:45 am.
