Hello parents!
Last month we wrapped up Red Ribbon Week at the end of the month, teaching our students about making strong and healthy choices. Students did classroom activities that promoted a positive self-image and self-care.
November 13th is World Kindness Day and we are ALWAYS promoting kindness at the ELC. We will be reading the book "Wonder" to our students. There will be follow up activities that the classrooms will do on November 13th that relate to the book reading as well.
Our next Kindergarten and Coffee will be Friday November 8th at 8:45am. I will be discussing College and Career Preparedness. I know what you're thinking-why do I need to think about college and career in KINDERGARTEN! We spent a whole WEEK talking about college and careers in September, followed by our Careers on Wheels event, and then we continue to talk about it throughout the year. Our students are BIG dreamers so the earlier we can start talking about this, the better it supports our little Brickies. We look forward to seeing you there.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and break!

Flu- Don’t waste Fall by being sick. Get A Flu Shot! It’s Super Quick! Contact your healthcare provider, or make an appointment at our Brickie Clinic 219-945-9383.
Vaccinations- All students are required to have up to date immunizations- Letters will be going home November 1st for students that are not up to date on their shots! Deadline for vaccinations is November 11, 2019 .Make sure you send the records to the school nurse so we can update our records.
Health Conditions- If your student has a specific health condition, or needs special care during the school day such as medication, treatments, or monitoring, please inform your school nurse and provide your nurse with a care plan. Individual health care plans help keep your student safe and healthy.
Sick students- Please keep all sick children home from school- this includes fever greater than 100 degrees, vomiting, or diarrhea. If you are unsure, please call your healthcare provider or school nurse for advice.
Head Lice- It’s that time of year where our students break out their coats, scarves, and hats. Please encourage your child not to share such items as hats, scarves, brushes, or any personal items. Lice is not a danger to your child’s health, it is simply an annoying problem that comes around this time of year, so no need to panic. Please know that anyone and everyone can get lice. Getting lice has nothing to do with you being clean or dirty, it only has to do with the fact that you are human. It is very important to check your family for lice this time of year regularly. If you find any live lice or eggs, it is absolutely necessary to treat each “infected” person, but more importantly, you must notify the school so that we can effectively and confidentially assist you with monitoring. The school nurse can assist you with proper treatment options, as well as identify and demonstrate for you what to do.
CLOTHING- Please make sure your student has an extra change of clothing in his/her backpack in case needed for unforeseen circumstances that may arise during the school day.
If you have any questions, please call your school nurse or visit our school nurse page at: http://www.hobart.k12.in.us for more information on student health, school forms, and other helpful links.
