If you have a child who will be 5 by August 1st it is now time to enroll your child. Kindergarten Registration starts Monday, March 4th at Groveport Madison District Office (4400 Marketing Place). Call our enrollment office at 614.491.8288 for more information. It is important not to wait until the last minute to ensure your child is enrolled in his/her home school.

Flu Prevention:

The flu virus has been spreading rapidly around schools, child care centers, offices and homes. Sometimes no matter how well we try to avoid being around someone who's sick, we always

cross paths one way or another. While avoiding it may be impossible, we can help stop the spread of this very contagious virus.

Cleaning to prevent the flu is a must! The flu virus can “live” on some surfaces for up to 24 hours. Flu viruses are killed by heat above 167° F. Common household cleaning products can also kill the virus. Products containing chlorine,hydrogen peroxide, detergents (soap), iodophors (iodine-based antiseptics) and alcohols will kill the viruses. In addition to frequent cleaning, make sure to practice proper hand hygiene.
