THANKS
If you would like to have your child or children to have any over the
counter medication for the 2009-2010 school year I have copies of
this form at school or you may use the form on this link. You need
to have a doctor sign the bottom of the form. Thanks
for your cooperation in this matter.

March is National Nutrition Month!
Here are some tips to add nutritious foods to your child's diet.
Plus you can learn how many servings you need in a day and how much food
is in a serving.

If the kindergarten

medicine (MD) or a doctor of osteopathy (DO) may sign and place on
file with the school a written statement documenting the month and
year of previous varicella (chickenpox) disease as satisfactory
evidence of having had the disease. parental or guardian
statements of disease will no longer be accepted beginning with the
2010-2011 school year for children entering kindergarten.

This rule applies to
children entering kindergarten and thereafter. For children
enrolled in grades one (1) through five (5), only one dose of
varicella (chickenpox) vaccine required. Parental or
guardian statements of disease continue to be acceptable.
Eighth Grade Student for 2010 - 2011 school year
-
Tdap
(tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) vaccine will
be required for all incoming eighth (8th) grade students if the
child has completed the recommended childhood DTaP/DTP vaccination
series and has not received a Td booster within the past two (2)
years.
-
For children
enrolled in grades nine (9) through twelve (12) who have not
received a single dose of Td, it is highly recommended they receive
a single dose of Tdap as their catch-up booster instead of Td or
receive one dose of the Tdap two years after the last Td dose.
