Fine Arts and Language Arts Make Connection
|
In an effort to forge a connection between fine and language arts, Mrs. Bloomer's Drawing II students created their own visual interpretations of place poems that were written by Mrs. Herrmann's Creative Writing students. The Creative Writing students were asked to write an anonymous poem describing their favorite place, and the poems were then randomly given to the Drawing II students. Artists did not reveal their illustrations to the poets until they were completed, offering the poets an awe-inspiring surprise of another student's perspective of their words. Please check them out in the clock hallway across from the library entrance.

Health Minute
Important Information from the Health Room
|
Parents, please mind your student(s) that they always need to come to the Health Room with any health concerns and to not call or text home. The Health Technician will always call the parent or emergency contact to arrange for the student to leave school when ill. If a student talks or texts their parent on their own cell phone and then they leave school without contacting a staff member and receiving a permit to leave, they are considered truant from school.
Reminder that each new school year requires a new Individualized Healthcare Plan for students who have health issues and for students who need Epi-Pens, inhalers, etc. Students can carry inhalers, but must have this signed form on file with the Health Office. These forms can be found on huhs.org, use the Services Tab, scroll to Health Services. The appropriate forms are located on the right side of the page. Any prescribed medications will need a parent and doctor's signature. Students can carry over-the-counter medications with parental approval if it is in the original bottle, with a signed note from the parent. The Health Office page also offers tips and guidelines for procedures in the Health Office to keep your child safe at school.
