Note from the Nurses: *PLEASE SEE PINK FORM STAPLED TO BULLETIN* As students return to school, it's common to see an increase in seasonal illnesses like colds, stomach bugs, and viruses. To help keep everyone healthy, please remember: students must be fever-free, and free from vomiting or diarrhea for at least 24 hours without the use of medication before returning to school. This helps prevent the spread of illness and ensures your child is ready to fully participate in class.
JW Preschool Open House: Will be held Tuesday, September 16th from 5:00-7:00 P.M. Come meet the teachers, tour the building, explore the rooms, and experience the new playground. This is a community event and all are welcome to attend!
Water Bottles: We are having lots of spilled water bottles at school. Please ensure that your child’s water bottle has ONLY water in it, is spill proof, and that the lid is not cracked/broken. In addition to that, we encourage water at school but if your child comes to school with a drink that is not water (Boone & Bounty, EstablishFit, etc) they will have to finish it in the lunchroom before going to class. Thank you for your help!
Attendance: If your child is going to be absent from school, please notify the office by 9:00 A.M. Please remember to drop off or send a note for any type of doctor’s appointment (dentist, therapy, urgent care, etc.) Afternoon transportation changes need to be reported to the office via planner or phone call by 2:30 P.M. Thank you for your active participation!
