Growing and Glowing at Olds!
There have been too many incredible examples of how our students and campus have been growing and glowing this week. Everything from marshmallow launches in 5th grade, to animal defense mechanism writing in 4th grade, to a new bike rack installed; all of it has been amazing to see this week and there have been so many other examples. Yesterday five of our students participated in the Elementary All County Honors Chorus. Them, along with about 100 other WCPSS elementary students spent hours Friday evening and Saturday morning preparing for this performance. They sang five songs and did an amazing job! The students received a much deserved standing ovation! Keep up the great work and keep growing and glowing!
Keeping Students Healthy
As we see an increase in students going home due to illness please review these reminders. When your child is sick the best thing you can do is to keep your children home when sick. This will help stop the spread of illness to other children and teachers. Keep them home when they show any symptom of illness.
Symptoms: Fever of 100.4 or higher, Diarrhea, Nausea and Vomiting, Severe headache, Red, watery eyes with yellow discharge, Undiagnosed rash, Inability to attend learning activities, Change in student’s typical medical status.
Help protect your children -- and their classmates -- when they're under the weather, so that they can return to the classroom healthy and ready to learn.
