We will have two dress rehearsals during school, after activity period on Thursday, May 17th, and Monday, May 21st.

It’s spring! May is skin cancer awareness month. Help teach your child the importance of sunscreen and to apply and reapply liberally to help preserve their young, healthy skin and prevent problems in the future. For more information, check out the following websites: http://www.shadefoundation.org/ or http://skincancerprevention.org/
With the nice weather, the children will be outside more frequently. Please remind your child to wear appropriate shoes on the playground. If they like to wear flip-flops, pack an extra pair of sneakers in their backpack to wear on the playground. Let’s help prevent foot and ankle injuries!
We are well into “sneezing season.” If your children suffer from allergies and plays outside a lot, remind them to wash their hands and faces, and perhaps change their clothing also, when returning indoors. This will remove pollen from skin surfaces which may help reduce runny noses and itchy eyes afterwards. May is also National Asthma Month. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website for more information: http://www.cdc.gov/asthma/.
As a general health awareness reminder, we continue to discuss the importance of proper hand washing. Please help encourage your student to cough into their elbow/sleeve and wash their hands after blowing their nose, sneezing, or coughing.
