SUMMER VIRTUAL LEARNING PROGRAM 1st-8th IS RUNNING!
As we have shared over the past few weeks, we have been actively exploring the options for offering a 1st through 8th Grade virtual summer learning program. We are excited to announce that Franklin Public Schools will offer a virtual summer learning program for students entering grades 1-8 in the fall of 2020.
We have developed rich online learning opportunities for your child to engage in during July. If you would like your child to enrich their learning through challenging online opportunities facilitated by our FPS staff, please consider registering your child for the FPS 1st-8th Summer Learning Program. All classes are 45 minutes and include live lessons from the FPS staff member teaching the course. Registration information will be directly emailed to all families on Tuesday, June 2 and registration will be open from Tuesday, June 2 through Monday, June 8 and is not first-come, first-serve.
Please click here to take a look at the 1st-8th Grade Summer Learning Program registration details, courses, descriptions, schedule, and session structure. Please note: Summer School courses are listed for the grade level the student will be entering in the fall of 2020.
A MESSAGE FROM MR. NELSON
ATTENTION 5TH GRADE PARENTS/GUARDIANS
Wisconsin Student Immunization Law requires that all students entering the 6th grade receive a dose of Tdap vaccine. To be compliant with state law, Franklin Public Schools must be provided with proof of an immunization or a waiver must be signed.
If your child has not already received the Tdap vaccine, work with your pediatrician or primary care provider to schedule the vaccine. Many local pediatricians and family care providers will be restarting (if they haven’t already) well child appointments and will be completing necessary immunizations. Record the date of the immunization in the appropriate box on the student immunization record link below and sign the form. The state of Wisconsin allows for waivers for immunization due to health, religious, or personal conviction reasons. To do so, follow the instructions on the student immunization record and sign the form. All signed forms can be emailed, faxed or dropped off at school (when our school buildings reopen).
If you have any questions, please contact Lori O’Neil, District Nurse at lori.oneil@franklin.k12.wi.us

HAPPY HOME
The ES3 team would like to share a new feature with you called Happy Home. Each week we will pass along some tips to help keep your home as happy and healthy as possible during Safer at Home. ES3 is a three-year state-funded grant program with the mission of improving outcomes for students who require social and emotional support. We can ALL use social and emotional supports, especially now, so we hope you enjoy!
Creating a Movement Pathway at Home
Our tips this week focus on providing your child a thoughtful physical break to help relieve stress, improve attention, and release built up energy. With students spending more time in front of the computer screen, it is critical that students can balance this sedentary lifestyle with planned brain breaks in the form of physical movement. This provides your child time to release energy in the body and brain, so there is an increase in time on task and attention to academic lessons. Source: Your Therapy Source.
