December Newsletter

Reminders from the Nurse:

  • Students must be picked up if they have a fever of 100.4° or higher, vomiting, or diarrhea. They must be symptom-free for 24 hours without medication before returning.

  • Only medication labeled for school hours or taken 4+ times daily may be given at school. Morning doses must be taken at home with breakfast.

  • Do not send medication on the bus. All medicine must be dropped off and signed in by an adult.

  • Please keep weather-appropriate clothes in your child’s backpack—accidents can happen in the cafeteria and on the playground.

  • Update phone numbers anytime they change so the school can reach you in emergencies.

Inclement Weather Information:

  • If ice or snow occurs, school closures will be announced by 6:00 a.m. on KWYN (Channel 8, Jonesboro), Channel 7 (Little Rock), and Channel 5 (Memphis).

  • Updates will also be posted on the school website and Facebook page.

Cooler Weather Reminder:

  • Send a jacket with your child each day. Students go outside for recess when the weather allows.

  • Label jackets with your child’s first and last name so they can be returned to you. Lost items are placed in the cafeteria’s lost-and-found. Unclaimed jackets are donated after a period of time.
