We
want to remind everyone that Mrs. Vega, our clinical aide, is in the school health
office every day. We also want to review
the procedure all students should be following when feeling ill at school. Students need to tell their teacher when they
are feeling ill, and then report to the health office where they will have
their temperature taken, be allowed to rest, and call home as needed.
Students
should not be calling or texting parents to pick them up from class. This creates a big disruption to the teachers
and the office staff as we try to track each student down. Also, if you are sick enough to be going
home, you should not be in class sharing your germs. This is a much smoother and safer experience
if all ill students get checked out through the health office.
Its
Senior Quote Time!
Senior
quotes for Yearbook will be accepted at the following link through February 1st:
