Winter Recess

We go outside during the winter months as much as possible. Come dressed for the weather every day. That includes hats, gloves, coats and boots when snow is on the ground. We stay inside when the real feel temperature is 15 and below or when it's raining.

We are surprising our staff with a much needed update to our workroom! If you would like, you can help stock it with some of our teacher's favorite things. Click here for a wish list! You can have it shipped directly to us through this list.

Thank you in advance!

Friday, December 19th

December 19th is going to be a fun-filled day! All the students will gather to watch The Grinch and play games! Then they'll end their day with class Christmas parties! And it's pajama day!

Remember: it's early release day - students are dismissed 2 hours early at 1:15!
 

Winter Wellness

As the winter season brings colder weather and seasonal illnesses, I wanted to share some important health and safety tips to keep our students healthy, safe, and ready to learn. The most important prevention measure is that students should stay home if they are sick to prevent the spread of germs. 

When to Keep Your Child Home 
To help prevent the spread of illness in our school, please keep your child home if they exhibit any of the following symptoms: 
  • Fever of 100.4°F or higher (must be fever-free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medication before returning). 
  • Vomiting or diarrhea (must be symptom-free for 24 hours before returning). 
  • Persistent cough, sore throat, or respiratory symptoms. 
  • Undiagnosed rash or draining eyes. 
If symptoms begin at school, your child will be sent home as soon as possible. If you are unsure whether to send your child to school, please contact the health office for guidance. 

Attached at the end of this post you'll find Winter Health Tips!
 

School Fees

School fees can conveniently be paid on PaySchools this year. Click here to log into your PaySchools account. If you still need to set up your account, remember to enter the student ID, found on ProgressBook or Final Forms. Also select "Green Local-Wayne" as the school.

A check or cash can also be sent in - just place it in an envelope with the child's first and last name and label it "school fees".
