* News from our principal, Katherine Kerrigan *
October has brought a few unwelcome illnesses to our school! Several students have been out with reports of stomach issues and head colds. Please help keep yourself and our school community healthy with these reminders:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially before eating and after using the restroom. Hand sanitizer alone does not work well against some stomach viruses.
- Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your elbow.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Clean frequently touched surfaces.
- Stay home when you are too sick and follow school guidance for returning.

Thank you for your continued partnership. We look forward to connecting with you next week!
