Book Fair
Book fair dates:
Spring Street 3/27
Howard 3/29
RLM 3/30
We are looking forward to students shopping at the Book Fair at the end of March! All classes will get a chance to come shop at the book fair according to the schedule the school created.
Parents/Guardians can come in and help students shop during their classrooms scheduled time. Please check with the office to make sure that you have a CORI on file. The book fair is cashless. If you are accompanying your child while shopping you can use a card as payment. If you are not accompanying your child while shopping please be sure to set up an e wallet so your child can shop. There is no charge to setup an e wallet. Parents simply create an account and authorize a spending limit on the card! The link for the e wallet will be available next week.
NURSE'S CORNER
When does my child need a doctor’s excuse?
Any injury that prohibits a student from functioning normally in the school setting must be medically addressed.
If your child has an injured ankle and can’t walk, injured shoulder and can’t move it, etc. they must be seen by their doctor to rule out a fracture or injury that could be aggravated by school.
If they hit their head and are having headaches, or dizzy spells, they should be seen by the doctor to rule out a concussion, etc.
If your child is assigned an air cast boot, crutches, scooter or a wheelchair, they must have a note from the doctor stating it is ok to be in school with them.
If your child reports to the health office and appears injured, you will be asked to pick them up and have them evaluated by a doctor. A note from the physician will be required in order for your child to return to school.
For all injuries, a medical note is required to excuse your child from physical education/recess. A note from the same physician is required to return your child to gym/sports/recess activities.
A doctor’s note is required for admittance to school after 5 consecutive absences
