Hope you and your family enjoy your November break. November is all about Gratitude and this year I'm grateful to be a part of you and your children's lives. I'm grateful for the chill in the air and the changing leaves. I'm grateful for local farms and sunflowers. I'm grateful for my girls and getting to spend time with them before they get too big to be around me. My daughter Mackenzie and I took a Mommy/Daughter trip to Miami to see Taylor Swift and to swim with dolphins. I'm grateful that my youngest Sydney who has autism had a wonderful 9th birthday and I'm grateful for her village at Brunswick Acres for truly making her feel like a Queen that day (see pic below).

Luckily there is still time to make sure you and your family are up to date on all of your vaccines including Flu/Covid. The CDC recommends getting Flu/COVID shots this season and it is safe to get them at the same time. My daughters and I got both vaccines early with little to no side effects.

Please keep your child home if they have a temperature greater than 100.5, have vomited or had diarrhea in the last 24 hours. They can return to school once they are feeling better, have been fever free for >24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications and have been vomiting/diarrhea free for >24 hours.

Make sure to report absences in Genesis or contact the attendance office.
