Husky Happenings
November 5-10
From Mr. Martin
Our TRMS staff shares a positive weekly message with each other called the Bucket List. Last week I mentioned where the real magic of teaching and learning happens. Part of our role as educators and parents is to challenge what we think is possible. See information below.
I am proud of all of our staff for their performance during our Parent Teacher conferences. I did hear many times that students were self-assessing their grades prior to a summative evaluation. Job well done! The magic happens when you take students just beyond their expectations and provide a challenge. Students can then see beyond their own self-imposed horizon.
MINDSET MOMENT: You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

From Nurse Rhea:
Achoo….Not the Flu!!!
Let’s face it catching the flu (aka influenza) is miserable. So here are a few facts about influenza and what you and your family can do to help prevent it. First of all, influenza and the stomach flu are often thought to be the same thing, however they are not. Influenza is a highly contagious respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses. The influenza virus usually enters the body through mucous membranes in the mouth, nose, or eyes.
Flu symptoms: Sudden onset of fever, chills, body aches, tiredness, coughing, sneezing, and sore throat. Ways to prevent the flu: wash hands often with soap and water, avoid touching face, cover all sneezes and coughs with your elbow, and get plenty of rest and exercise. If you or your children get the flu please stay home and take care of yourselves until you are free from fever for 24 hours without fever reducing medications. Thank you for helping keep our Trail Ridge students healthy!
