Sheridan Hill Helping Save the Earth and Save Lives
Students in Mrs. Harris' 3rd grade class proposed a recycling opportunity that would raise money to donate to the Oishei Children's Hospital. We will be collecting clean soda or water bottles/cans until spring break. The students have set a goal for $350 and are encouraging everyone to contribute. Thank you for your support!
Healthy News and Notes
Spring Safety Tips: Continue to take everyday precautions against the FLU!
Spring Cleaning: In addition to your regular spring cleaning chores, consider adding some that will make your home a little safer for your kids, such as cleaning out your medicine cabinet, checking product recalls, and looking for broken toys, etc.
Sun Safety: Remember, the sun’s rays are strongest between the hours of 10:00am and 4:00pm. Use SPF 15 or higher, even on cloudy days. It is important to get a healthy dose of sunshine each day!
Asthma/Allergy Action Plans: Seasonal Allergy and Asthma Action Plans are important to review and update with your healthcare provider, and a copy should be on file at school, as well as a rescue inhaler. Learn what your child’s triggers are – pollen, grass, molds, temperature changes, exercise, smoke, perfume, pesticides? Please Let us know. Children deserve allergy and asthma friendly homes and schools.
News from the Office
Coming Early? Running Late?
What if there is a change for the end of the day?
We recognize that there are times when you might need to pick up your child early from school or need to change their of placement for the end of the day. A note at the beginning at the beginning of the day is preferable.
We ask that you contact the school early in the day if you need to make a change to your child's after school routine. Please do not depend on voicemail or email communication with the teacher as they may not get a chance to check these forms of communication while working with children. Please contact the school office before 1:00 PM with the change request.
What if my child is absent?
