Hello Highland Terrace families,
We just wanted to check in about some of the health conditions we have been seeing in the last few weeks to keep everyone in the loop and to keep our students healthy!
1. We have become aware of a few cases of lice this spring! Please continue to check your child's hair and to remind your student to avoid sharing hats/brushes with their friends, and to be careful about putting their heads together. This is not a health concern, and we do not send students home; however, it can sure be an inconvenience and we want to minimize the problem as much as possible! Please stop in the Health Office or contact Nurse Jennie at 206-393-4344 if you would like assistance with checking your child's hair or if you would like information about resources available to you.
2. Some students have anxiety surrounding the SBA testing process. Encourage your student to drink lots of fluids, get sufficient rest, and to bring healthy snacks while your student is testing.
3. We have seen quite a few stomach aches that come and go and last for at least a week. Some students are vomiting, some have diarrhea, and many do not have fevers. Again, fluids and rest are a great way to deal with this.
Please feel free to call if you have any concerns/questions.
Thanks!
Nurse Jennie and Principal Henderson

UPLOAD YOUR CLASSROOM PHOTOS FOR THE YEARBOOK!
Did you know that you can collect your candids and upload them into Pictavo for our 2017-18 yearbook? There is a folder for each grade level as well as a folder for HT’s big events (Move-A-Thon, Pancake Breakfast, Science Night, etc.). We are now collecting photos of our students and classrooms to be selected for our yearbook’s candid pages. See the last page of this Bulletin for picture upload instructions. -
Thank You for Supporting the Scholastic
Book Fair!
Thank you to all of our wonderful students, parents, grandparents, teachers, volunteers and PTA that helped make our Scholastic Book Fair a big success! We raised just over $6000.00 for the Library! The profit from your purchases bought new books for our school library. Other donations helped build classroom libraries through our "Teacher Wish List" program.
Thank you for all of your continued support. We couldn’t do it without you!
Until next year!
Alicia Wilson
Librarian
Highland Terrace Elementary
