In Our Class This Week...

I hope everyone had a great week and adjusted well with the subs. I am so sorry I was out all week. I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with strep throat- rest and antibiotics for 7 days :( I am finally feeling better, still couching but better! To prevent students from getting sick please remind your children to cough/sneeze into their elbow, use tissue, wash their hands, keep their hands out of their mouths and just be careful in general. With this said, I would really appreciate it if I could possibly get some Kleenex boxes donated and some Lysol Disinfecting Spray. If your are able to donate any of these items, THANK YOU!
