Future Healthcare Professionals Club
The Future Healthcare Professionals Club is a great opportunity to learn more about the healthcare field, whether that be what a day in the life of a working physician is like, how to jumpstart your career, or how to get involved locally. So far, we have had a medical student, nurse, OBGYN, audiologist, and more come in and talk with us. The guest speaker for March will be Ms. Starkey, a pharmacist at Deaconess Hospital. If anyone is interested in taking part in the upcoming meeting, you are welcome to join us in the Commons at 3:15 on Tuesday, March 7th. Those who regularly attend the monthly meetings will be given preference to take Anatomy and Physiology as an elective next year.
UE Engineering OPTIONS Summer Camp
The College of Engineering and Computer Science at University of Evansville will host its annual UE Engineering OPTIONS Summer Camp for High School Girls this June. They are inviting high school girls in the tri-state area to participate. More detailed information for the camp can be found online.
Junior Sarah Ballard has been accepted to the 2017 Summer Health Science Institute. They take very few participants from very many applications. It is a huge plus to participate in this when applying to medical school institutions.
Congratulations, Leah!

Day School Community Highlights
To help prevent the spread of infection and better maintain infection control, please note the following information. Evansville Day School defines a "fever" as a registered body temperature of 100 F or higher. A child who has a fever needs to remain at home until he or she has been fever-free (without Tylenol or Motrin) for 24 hours prior to returning to school. If a student is determined to have a fever while at school, the parent/guardian will be notified and the student sent home. This policy is in place for everyone's benefit. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school nurse, designee, or administrative assistant(s).
Some other reasons that your child could be sent home without a "fever" include, but are not limited to:
* Vomiting* (2 episodes without fever, 1 episode with fever)
* Diarrhea* (2 episodes without fever, 1 episode with fever)
* Unexplained rash
* Head lice or nits
*A child experiencing two or more episodes of vomiting or diarrhea in a 24 hour period needs to remain at home until he or she is without symptoms for 24 hours prior to returning to school.
Tennis Equipment Needed
