“Nursing is about caring, comfort, prevention, and assessing both spoken and unspoken needs, and empowering patients towards self-care. But School Nursing is about doing all of these things for persons still in progress -children- who are still learning how to be and stay well.”—anonymous
Influenza:
Influenza season is beginning.
Washing hands often (and correctly) is the best protection against the Flu as well as other germs!
Students that are sick should REMAIN HOME until they are fever free (temperature under 100.0) for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication (TYLENOL, IBUPROFEN).
Student Influenza Vaccination Clinic will be November 14th. Consent forms have been sent home.

The Lions Club will be coming October 25th and 26th to help do vision screening on children in grades 4K-6.
Letters about this will be coming home.
