Donation Request- Flu Prevention

What's Going Around | Cleaning After Flu
Flu season is brutal and with some schools closing because of it, it's time to talk about how we prevent the flu from spreading once it's hit your home. What do you disinfect? How to keep it from spreading from person to person?
First, check the label to make sure the disinfectant you are using works against the viruses you're targeting, such as cold and flu.
When you use disinfectant sprays, paper towels are better than sponges, but disposable disinfectant wipes have an advantage because you typically wipe the surface and let it dry, which gives it more time to kill the organisms.
If your student has had a fever within the past 24 hours they are not permitted to attend school.

Speed Stacking Cups
PE had a guest speaker earlier this week from Speed Stacks that introduced a new activity with the students called Sport Stacking. The students had a great time while they learned different cup stacking patterns and all the rules for competition. There are competitive events and clubs throughout the country where people of all ages can participate or they can simply practice at home or with friends. Students also have the opportunity to purchase their own specially designed cup sets as well as mats and timers. This is not a requirement, simply an option for them to continue sport stacking if they wish. A portion of the proceeds does benefit the Physical Education department for us to earn sport stacking equipment as well.
If interested, please follow the link and select our school from the drop down menu. Then simply select any of the sets, mats, or timers and you're able to pay online and then print out the receipt. Bring that to one of the coaches and they will be able to pick up their equipment right here at school. If you're not able to print it out, that's ok too, we can check from our end online.
