     The Cold and Flu Season are here  Sick Child


 

If you feel your child is sick or might be sick, we ask you to please keep them at home.  

If your child's temperature is 99.6 degrees or higher, it is considered a low-grade temperature.  Please keep your child at home as whatever your child has is now considered contagious.

A child must be fever free and not vomiting, WITHOUT any medications (Acetaminophen/ Tylenol, Ibuprofen/Motrin) in their system for at least 24 hours before they can return to school.

If your child suddenly comes down with the following symptoms:  fever, headache, muscle aches, sore throat, cough, fatigue, nausea or vomiting - we encourage you to contact your local physician and discuss your child's symptoms.

Do not forget to let your school secretary know that your child will not be in school.  If you would like to pick up any homework after school, please let the secretary know at that time.

Thank You!
 
Calvary Family Association (CFA) Meeting
 
Tuesday, May 19, 2015 at 6:30 p.m., in the Parish Hall.

We will be discussing the end of the year picnic and future plans for the 2015-16 school year.  We will need help with the picnic, so if you owe PPP hours, instead of being charged for it, come out and see how you help the CFA finish out the 2014-15 with a blast!

Make sure you join us this evening and "bring a friend or two."

This is your last opportunity to attend the 2014-15 CFA Meeting and receive a 1 hour deduction from your PPP Hours! 

Free dress on Friday, May 22nd for those students whose parents attend the CFA Meeting!
