Notes from Mrs. Callahan, Nurse at DBES
Field Day is expected to be seasonably hot. Please be sure that you begin to pre -hydrate your students 2-3 days before their field day. Just brining a water bottle will not be sufficient hydration for field day participation. Dehydration can happen really fast and can be dangerous. We do not want our students to become over heated and miss their fun!
Nurse Callahan has just sent home medical forms this week for NEXT school year. Please be sure and check your child’s back pack / folder. All medications currently in the health room MUST BE PICKED UP no later than Friday 5/27 at 1 PM. Please contact nurse Callahan if you need your medications to be given to another designated parent or if you need to make arrangements for extenuating circumstances.

Forgot to Order a Yearbook?
Did you forget to order a yearbook? You are in luck—we ordered some extras! Please email Sara McCart at mccarts@fortmillschools.org if you would like a Soft Cover ($30) or Hard Cover ($35) along with your student’s first and last name and quantity desired. If you have funds in your student’s lunch account that you would like to go toward the cost of the yearbook, please indicate that in your email. We will sell these on a first come-first served basis! Can’t remember if your ordered one? Log into Pay Fees and click on “Paid” to see if you purchased one.
FINAL REPORT CARDS
Final Report cards will be published to Paren tPortal Friday, May 27th around noon. Please use this link from a computer as this function will not work from the cell phone app: https://fortmill.powerschool.com/public/home.html. Choose your student and then select Student Reports. This is a great time to print that last report card that many sports groups might request!
