MARCH 17TH

Welcome back, I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing break. It is always good to have a time to recharge by relaxing our mind and body. That recharge is necessary, so that we are ready for the final push of the school year. The last quarter is fast and furious because we are beginning of  Testing season, as well as preparing for the end of year things. The constants that will help guide us to the end is remembering our Mission, Vision and collective commitments. 

I missed you all and can’t wait to see you.

Health Room Procedures 

Currently, administration is working with the nursing office to develop a triage protocol. A protocol will ensure students' concerns are handled appropriately and along with protecting instruction time. Until the protocol is ready to implement, below are items to review and follow until further notice.

• No students should be sent to the Nurses office during passing period.
• When a student is sent to receive care, a blue pass must be filled out by the teacher that contains the teacher’s name, students name, reason to be seen and a time the student left the classroom.
