12/5 Today is the first day of our Grinch for Good Food Campaign! We’re
hoping to see that
the holiday spirit is alive and well in the hearts of our SFMS families as
we attempt to
help feed local families as well as to grow the Grinch’s heart three sizes!
This holiday season, we are excited to grow our hearts three sizes bigger,
just like the Grinch! To make this happen, SFMS is participating in the
#GrinchforGood campaign by organizing a seasonal food drive. Our food
drive will run for one week – Wednesday, December 5th to Wednesday,
December 12th. The food collected (non-perishable, preferably cans) will be
donated to the Sheboygan County Food Bank. Thank you for your kindness,
generosity & holiday spirit!

*Health Tip:*
Let’s have a Happy Healthy Holiday season by starting off with celebrating
National Hand washing Awareness Week (12/3-12/9) to help make your school
prepared. Here are some simple steps to follow:
1. Everyone (staff and students) wash or sanitize your hands upon
entering the facility. You don’t want to bring in these infections.
2. Wash your hands when they are dirty and before eating.
3. Do not cough or sneeze into your hands.
4. Never touch your T zone. This is the eyes, nose, or mouth to prevent
infections from entering the human body.
