A NOTE FROM NURSE NICKY
Parents, please remember that in an effort to help prevent the spread of illnesses our policy is that a child must be free of vomiting, diarrhea, and fever for 24 hours WITHOUT medication before returning to school. Please see the BISD policy linked below.
Thank you,
Nicky Crow, RN
FLY FRIDAY & HAT DAY
Hat Day
For $1, your child is allowed to wear a ball cap (not a crazy hat). The money raised will go towards technology for our campus.
CHARACTER TRAIT WEDNESDAY
Wear GREEN on Wednesday!
Students that wear the color GREEN on Wednesdays will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a prize from the office!
The color will change every 6 weeks.
