Nurse's News
Virtual Field Day is almost here!!!!
We always need physical exercise to keep our bodies and minds healthy and strong. But now more than ever with schools closed, remote learning, stay at home rules, and social distancing, physical activity is more important than ever for ALL of us!!!
Exercise can prevent illness, reduce tension and anxiety, improve cardiorespiratory fitness, build strong bones and muscles, control weight, and reduce the risk of developing health conditions such as: heart disease, cancer, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis and obesity. But, the best part for families is that it can be fun and we can make lasting memories together with our children!!!
So, take a look at the Virtual Field Day Website, developed by our amazing physical education staff for a first, Virtual Field Day on Friday, June 5, 2020. Practice some games together, no special equipment needed, use things you have at home, and have fun while taking care of your minds and bodies too!!!
Keep Recycling
When we return to school, send in your old markers, dry erase markers, and highlighters! (No crayons, please.) There is a collection box in the front lobby next to the BoxTops!
