Our Falcon Leaders Value this month is courage. Courage is being brave
enough to do what you should do, even when you are afraid. One type of
courage is physical. This type of courage can be witnessed by those who
conquer their fears by zip lining or skydiving. What’s something that you
had the courage to do, even when you were afraid?

month of October. Each day there is a word that is given, and you may only
use INK (pen, marker, fine point Sharpies, etc.) to illustrate your
interpretation of that word. Search #Inktober on social media for
examples!! Interested? See Mrs. Fischer for a sheet. If you
participate, show all 31 drawings to Mrs. Fischer after Halloween for a
small prize!
**7th graders, there are Inktober prompts on your neighborhood bulletin
board.
*Week of October 21st*
Today is our 4th week of Bully Prevention Awareness Month. Our theme this
week is “At Falls, Everyone Matters”. The theme was chosen to emphasize how
important each and every one of us is here at Falls, in our community and
in the world. Life can be tough sometimes. We should be able to count on
our friends and our peers to support us and to be there for us. Thank you
to everybody that treats one another with respect and kindness that we all
deserve. Together, we can continue to keep our school safe and welcoming
for all! Don’t forget to wear black on Wednesday to take a stand against
bullying! Have a great week!

From your school nurse:
We know that illness can strike any of us at any time.
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services recommends that everyone age 6
months old and older get vaccinated against the flu. The vaccine is safe
and effective and can prevent long absences from school and work.
In addition, there are steps the whole family can take to prevent and stop
the spread of illness. These include:
· Wash your hands often with soap and water, or use an
alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
· Cover your cough or sneeze with your upper sleeve, and try to
avoid touching your face with your hand.
· If you use a tissue, throw it away after one use.
· Never share drinking cups, straws, and utensils.
· When possible, avoid being exposed to people who are sick with
flu-like symptoms.
· Eat nutritious meals, get plenty of rest, and do not smoke.
· Frequently clean commonly touched surfaces, like doorknobs, the
refrigerator handles, your phone, and faucets.
If your child shows signs of illness, such as a high fever, cough,
sneezing, or runny nose, please keep them home until 24 hours after the
symptoms pass to prevent them from spreading illness to classmates and
staff. You can find our policy on absences in the district handbook.
Working together, we can make this a healthy school year for everyone.
