Update on H1N1/Seasonal Flu:
We have had many students out of school sick in the last few weeks, as have many local schools. Please remember that this is flu season and you should keep your child home from school if they are sick.
If your child has any of the following symptoms: high fever, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, and/or diarrhea, please consult your doctor. If your child has a medical condition (i.e. asthma, diabetes, etc.) or is under 5 years old, you should also consult your doctor. Please make sure your child is free of fever for at least 24 hours before sending them back to school.
There is no reason to panic. If you are in doubt about your child's condition, you should see your doctor, as you normally would. We are using hand sanitizers and reminding students to cover their coughs at school. These are also things you can do at home.
Have further questions about H1N1 or the flu? Visit the CDC site at:

On a happier note, Quinten Nelson placed 1st in Yamaha Sportsman and 3rd in HPV Junior Sportsman in this weekend’s OVKA kart race season finale. This earned Quinten overall 2nd place and 5th place respectively for the season championship. Quinten next travels to Charlotte, North Carolina, at Lowes Motor Speedway, for the last World Karting Association National race of the year. Keep up the great work Quinten!
