ES Life Lately …
Safety First!
This past Thursday, September 22nd, SFES had our first fire drill of the year. Students did a fine job following directions and learning their evacuation spots outside of our building. We look forward to welcoming our local Firefighters the week of October 10th to review and learn more about fire safety.
Our new 4K Families enjoyed their first family event: 4K Family Football night! Check out some of the photos from this fun, traditional event that kicks off our fall community partnerships.
School Celebration Reminder
As we head into October, just a reminder that our Fall Celebration for Halloween is themed to help us include all students, tie our celebration to curriculum, AND make it predictable for each grade level. Please see HERE for details on school celebrations, and reach out to your child’s teacher with any questions. We are excited to tie our fall celebration to our daily academic work in reading, social studies and science!
From the Nurses …
As we are still finding our “new normal” with school illnesses, we wanted to re-share our ILLNESS POLICY:
Please DO NOT send your child to school if the child has:
  • A fever ~ oral temperature of 100.0 or higher. Students taking medication for a fever should not be sent to school. We cannot dispense medication for a fever at school.
  • Diarrhea and/or vomiting within 24hrs of the school day.
  • Communicable diseases, please call the school nurse if your child is diagnosed with any communicable diseases.
You MAY send your child to school if the child:
  • Has been taking antibiotics for 24 hours or more.
  • Has a mild cold, cough, or runny nose.
  • Is experiencing symptoms which are part of a medical condition.
  • Has minor bumps, bruises, scrapes, etc. that don’t require medical attention.
  • Has been fever, vomit and diarrhea free for 24 hours or more.
Testing is recommended for those experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 but is no longer required for returning to school. This school year we do not have on-site COVID testing at the High School. If you are unable to obtain a rapid test kit, reach out to your school nurse. More information about contact tracing and COVID protocols can be found on our school website’s Responsible Return Plan.
Lastly, if your student has a cellphone and is texting you to come pick them up, please call the school to verify that your child has had their symptoms checked by the nurse or office staff. Picking them up without talking to a staff member will result in an unexcused absence.
Thank You!
In Wellness,
Your School Nurses
