Latex Allergy

There are several people on our campus who are extremely allergic to LATEX.
Please do not bring latex balloons or latex gloves or any latex products to school.
We appreciate your help in this matter.
Maintaining a Well-Balanced Diet
-
It may sound cliché, but eating a healthy breakfast gives your student a head start. Studies have shown that children who eat breakfast learn better, participate in class more often, behave better, and attend school more often. They even visit the school nurse less frequently.
Breakfast also helps them with a less delicate problem: constipation. A lot of kids go to the nurse's office with stomach pain, and it's often because they did not have a bowel movement at home and don't want to use the school bathroom, says Dr. Yankus. "The body is ready to stool within a half hour of eating breakfast, but most kids don't leave enough time in the morning for that," he explains. "I urge middle and high school kids to get up early enough to eat, shower, and sit on the toilet before they go to school."Here are a few tips for staying safe in school: Stay Healthy Tips for Kids in School
