Husky Happenings
January 28 - February 2
From Mr. Martin
We have been covered in snow for quite some time. I would like to recognize Hugo and his team for clearing our site and making it safe. I remind parents in the car loop for dismissal and pickup; our only priority is safety. There will be delays anytime we experience weather events.
Please note an upcoming event, “Parenting in the Digital Age”. This is an event that is relevant to all parents. Mark you calendar for 6:30pm, February 7, 2019 @ TRMS Commons. Pizza will be served and is part of the presentation.

From Nurse Rhea:
Getting back into the routine of getting up early for school can be difficult following a long break! Encouraging a bedtime routine will help make those early mornings easier! Studies show that school aged children get around seven hours of sleep a night, when they really still need at least nine! Getting a good night’s rest can help promote healthy habits that will last a lifetime!
If you are the parent of a current 6th grade student, please remember that the Tdap vaccine is required for entry into the 7th grade. Documentation of this vaccine can be sent in at any time, and will alleviate some of the stress of starting a new school year in the Fall.
