Registration is open NOW for the next six week session.
Registration form and payment must be sent to school to the attention of Lisa O'Toole. There are only 20 slots available in each session, spots are first come first served when payment and registration is returned together.
Just a reminder that there are no scheduled STREAM Academy sessions this Friday, January 31 due to the noon dismissal at St. Joseph.

Nurse's Notes
We have had cases of Strep throat in middle school and third grade. Symptoms of Strep infection can include fever (with or without a sore throat), stomach pain, vomiting and headache. If diagnosed with Strep, students must remain out of school for 24 hours following the initial dose of antibiotic.
There has been a nationwide increase in influenza and influenza-like illnesses this week. We are seeing an increase in these illnesses at school and most grade levels have had exposures. As a reminder, symptoms of influenza can include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, fatigue and occasionally vomiting and diarrhea (more common in children than adults).
Please continue to report diagnosed cases of influenza and Strep to the school nurse. Remind your children to cover their coughs and use good hand washing techniques to help prevent the spread of illness.
