August 28th – September 1st
As we prepare for the shortened week ahead and the continued launch of our super units, I am reminded of the importance of empowering and inspiring our students. Each day in the classroom is an opportunity for us to equip our students with the knowledge, skills, and values they need to make a difference in their lives and the world around them. Let us remember that our impact extends far beyond a shortened week, and let us approach every day with passion, dedication, and a commitment to nurturing the minds and hearts of our students. In essence, keep doing what you are doing.
Nursing visits
We had 90 nursing office visits last week. Of those 62 were given rest or water in the nurse’s office and sent back to class. The other 22 were given medicine, and bandaids or sent home. We are doing better than last year. Please ask students to drink water if they have a headache or tummy ache. If it continues after 10 minutes please send them to the nurse as you see fit.

Minor Adjustment to our Schedule this week
