Congratulations to Denelle Gonnerman, CF Schools Chief Financial Officer, who was awarded the Iowa Association of School Business Officials 2022 Professional Leadership Award! Presenting her the award was Nancy Blow, Executive Director IASBO.

The Professional Leadership Award is one of the highest honors that Iowa ASBO bestows upon its members. The awards are not just a measure of extraordinary deeds or a lengthy career – they are a recognition of those school business officials who, throughout their career and lifetime, have demonstrated excellence in service to their school district, communities and their profession.
This May is School Board Recognition Month, and we are saying thank you to our board members! Please join us in saying thank you to these volunteers who donate their time to lead our public schools. #TigerPride

Cedar Falls Schools Foundation Awards Madeline Chilton & Kasey Dekko Nero Memorial Grants for Continuing Education
 
The John and Doris Nero Memorial Grant was established after John's passing in 2011, for first and second year teachers. The Nero's dedicated their careers to education as teachers and guidance counselors. Both John and Doris were passionate about assisting new teachers as they embarked on their first years of teaching. New teachers may be eligible for a grant from this fund annually, to be used for tuition and/or materials for graduate courses. Two Nero Memorial Grants have been awarded this year to Madeline Chilton, Southdale Elementary and Kasey Dekko, Peet Junior High. Read the full article at cfschools.org/foundationnews
Kindergarten Visit Day May 18
We have a great class of kindergarteners coming to us in the 2022-2023 school year. Just a reminder, an immunization form must be at your attendance building prior to the Visit Day on May 18. We would also like to have the Health Update form by then, especially if your child has any allergies or health concerns. If you have any further immunization questions or health concerns, feel free to call either your building secretary or school nurse.

Picking up student medications at end of school year
Start thinking about getting your children’s remaining medications home at the end of the year. Health Office staff are available on the last day of school. We can send emergency medications home in their backpacks if indicated on their medication permission form, (for example EpiPens, inhalers or Diastat), but all other medications must be picked up by an adult or they will be disposed of.

Grades 7-12 Sports Physicals           
Spring is in the air, and with that comes time to schedule sports physicals and immunizations. Sports physicals have to be turned in before students can start practicing — so look ahead to start dates for their particular sport. Submit sports physicals to the building secretary or the athletic director.

Required Immunizations for 7th and 12th Graders
Parents, please note these are required by law to attend school including the first day of the new year. The required vaccine is the MenACWY, not the MenB. Please visit with your student's medical provider to be sure the correct vaccine is given.
-7th grade students are required to receive both a TDaP and MenACWY vaccine. 
-12th grade students are required to have a second Meningitis vaccine. 

Once again, give your school nurse a call if you have questions. Thank you and have a healthy spring!
