Mrs. Fischer is planning an Art Enrichment field trip to *JMKAC

first 50 students from 7th and 8th grade may attend. We will leave
around 9:10 and be back around 11:45. If 7th graders are in band, they
cannot go, as they will be gone at a festival already that day. Also, 8th
graders in 3rd and 4th hour science cannot go, as they will be presenting
Cell City projects that morning.
See Mrs. Fischer for any questions!

*Silverware:* Spring cleaning or cleaning out someone’s house? Have old or
mismatched forks and spoons? Send them to school! We prefer to use the
“real stuff” instead of plastic for a better dining experience. We also
feel this will save the landfills from all the plastic, this in part of an
Earth Day recycling event. You can drop in the office of any of our
schools. Thank you!

SFMS will be celebrating Earth Day, April 22, with a waste free lunch. As
a middle school our goal will be to help reduce the amount of trash that
goes into the landfill, and even work on reducing the amount of food that
goes in the trash as well. This will be an entire school effort from the
kitchen staff right to our students that we hope to continue after Earth
Day. Menu for that day is Corn Dogs, not preboated (count out 6), mashed
potatoes, gravy and carrots/ dip, watermelon/ mango and Dirt cake. There
will not be extra containers to put ketchup and dip in. Just place the
condiments on your tray with the food you’re using it on. Below are a few
ideas to help you pack your own waste free lunch.
*A Waste-Free Lunch*
*(REUSABLE)*
· sandwiches and other main dishes, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and
treats in a reusable lunch container
· cloth napkins
· stainless-steel forks and spoons
· reusable drink containers
· reusable lunchboxes
*Ever wonder what you’d look like if you tried to tie-dye your body? *Join
the fun on May 14th for the inaugural Flying Falcons 5K Color Run/Walk
being held on the Sheboygan Falls Elementary School campus. The event will
also have a 2 mile option. Compete for a time or just do it to get doused
in color but it is a guaranteed fun time! Early bird entries are due by April
15th. Registration forms can be picked up in the office of any school
building. If you have questions please contact Roberta Lentz at
[email protected] or Matt Pfister at
[email protected].

*From The Nurse:*
There are several things that contribute to choking. All of these things
can happen right in our lunch room.
1. Trying to swallow large pieces of poorly chewed food
2. Eating while talking excitedly or laughing
3. Eating too fast
4. Walking, playing or running with food our objects in the mouth
The universal sign of choking is to put both of your hands over your
throat. There are people in the lunch room who are trained to help you if
choking occurs. Someone who is coughing should continue to cough. If you
are choking and cannot talk and cannot cough give the universal choking
sign. Help will be on the way.
