Fundraiser is Coming!

We are getting ready to start our friends and family fundraiser! Without your continued support, our students would not have the educational experience that we all strive for. Several programs offered at our school are not funded by our budget and require a large financial commitment, which makes fundraising necessary. Thank you in advance for your support!

Fundraising packets will be coming home Thursday, September 19th.

Influenza Information

The Florida Department of Health reports influenza activity levels are expected to increase as we head into the fall months. An increase in activity is typical for this time of the year, as the 2019–20 influenza season is fast approaching. Influenza can cause mild to severe illness. Serious outcomes of influenza infection can result in hospitalization or death. Some people, such as young children, the elderly, and people with certain health conditions are at higher risk for serious complications from influenza. Some children are at especially high risk for influenza-related complications: children less than 5 years old, American Indian and Alaskan Native children, and children with chronic health problems. While rare, influenza-associated pediatric deaths are reported each season, most often in unvaccinated children with underlying health conditions. Last season, six influenza-associated pediatric deaths were reported in Florida, and all six occurred in children who were not fully vaccinated. Influenza vaccination has been shown to significantly reduce a child’s risk of dying from flu. For more information, please visit www.cdc.gov/flu/parents/index.htm.The Florida Department of Health is encouraging families to get vaccinated for influenza. Influenza vaccines are safe and the best way to protect against influenza and its potentially severe complications. The best way to protect your child and your family during influenza season is to: 1. Get vaccinated. 2. Keep sick family members home. 3. Contact your health care provider if you or your child are experiencing flu-like symptoms (common symptoms include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, and headache). 4. Follow your physician’s guidance on treatment. 5. Take additional steps to prevent flu by staying away from people who are sick, frequently washing your hands with soap and warm water, and avoiding touching your eyes, nose, and mouth as much as possible. Annual influenza vaccination is crucial for children with underlying health conditions including asthma, diabetes, heart disease, and neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions. Children less than 6 months old are too young to be vaccinated, which is why it is so important to make sure the people around them are vaccinated. Influenza vaccines are offered in many locations including pharmacies, clinics, employers, and schools. Contact your physician or county health department, or visit FloridaHealth.gov/findaflushot to find a location offering influenza vaccines near you.
