School Shootings and Bullying

With school shootings in the news these days, there is one common factor that is often overlooked. The majority of school shooters feel the need to kill as a result of being the victim of bullying. Here are some scary bullying statistics from a 2013 study:

Percent of students who reported being bullied at school, on a school bus or on the way to and from school:

• Bullied at school: 21.5%

• Made fun of or insulted: 13.6%

• Subject of rumors: 13.2%

• Pushed, shoved, spit on or tripped: 6.0%

• Excluded from activities: 4.5%

• Threatened with harm: 3.9%

• Forced to do things they didn’t want to do: 2.2%

Cold and Flu Season

By

Please keep your child home from school if they have:

  • A fever of 100 degrees or more in the past 24 hours
  • A diagnosis of a communicable disease
  • A cold in the active stages: coughing, running nose, and sneezing
  • A sore throat and/or swollen neck glands
  • An undiagnosed rash or skin eruption
  • Vomiting or diarrhea during the past 24 hours
  • Acute pain that requires relief by narcotic medication

If all families did their part, the spread of disease would be greatly reduced. 

Strep Throat, Stay Home!

By

It is currently cold and flu season throughout the country. We would like to remind you of an example of when your child should be kept home from school. If all families did their part, the spread of disease would be greatly reduced.

If your child is diagnosed with strep throat, 24 hours of antibiotic therapy is required before returning to school. Besides harming everyone else with these viruses, respiratory infections can trigger an asthma attack in certain susceptible children. We need to prevent these asthma attacks so by keeping your student home from school can help.
