SFHS Falconer – September 28, 2022

A Message from the Principal
Dear SFHS Falcon Families,
As we settle into the day-to-day routine of another school year, I’d like to thank you for entrusting us with the responsibility of helping you educate your children. The school year is off to a busy yet productive start. Our Freshmen were welcomed as part of a fun-filled yet informational Connections Mentor Program. Students and staff were on hand to do whatever was needed to make sure we provided the best environment possible for our newest Falcons.
Already this year, we’ve had several events and activities for both students and staff in school, along with several sporting and extracurricular events. A reminder that our Enhancement period format includes the opportunity for students to take part in a variety of clubs/groups during the school day on Wednesdays and Fridays throughout the school year.  
As the school year continues to progress, I want to invite you to our Parent/Teacher Conferences on Monday, October 3rd from 4:00 – 8:00 p.m. Please register here for times to meet with your child’s teachers. We look forward to seeing you then!
Go Falcons!

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
