This afternoon we had a few issues with our Chromebooks and internet accessibility. We are preparing the devices to safely work away from campus and ran into some unexpected problems in doing so. If your device is still unable to connect to any websites, the device policy needs to be updated. Typically this is done in 3 hours or less, but if it still has not updated, contact your school to arrange to have the device updated locally. Very sorry for the inconvenience. #KeepChargingForward

The flu virus is picking up steam in our state. Here are some ways to keep yourself and your family healthy during this peak flu season
1. Take the time to get your flu shot!
2. Wash your hands often with soap and water.
3. Cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze or cough.
4. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Remember how germs are spread!
5. Try to avoid close contact with people who are sick.

FLU tip of the day😊: The flu virus is spread mainly by droplets made when someone with flu coughs, sneezes or talks. These droplets can land in the nose or mouth of people standing nearby (yuck!). This is why it is very important to cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze (we’ll talk about that in a few days). Symptoms of the flu include: fever (usually high), cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, and/or chills. Flu symptoms typically come on suddenly. Next week our focus will be on ways to prevent the flu and what to do if you get the flu☹ Have a great weekend and stay weather alert!

FLU tip of the day: The BEST way to protect you and your family from the flu is to get a yearly flu vaccine. Flu vaccination is recommended for everyone 6 months of age and older. If you’ve not already gotten a flu vaccine, it’s not too late! You can get a flu shot from your local doctor, health department, and many pharmacies offer them as well. Protect yourself and your family. Get vaccinated! Stay tuned tomorrow as we discuss signs and symptoms of the flu and how it spreads from person to person.

Did you know that Influenza (“the Flu”) is a highly contagious disease that can be SERIOUS?? According to the CDC, millions of people get sick every year from the flu and require hospitalization. Many adults and children die each year as a result of flu complications. Over the next few days, we will be sending tips to keep you and your family protected from the flu.

Tonight’s junior high basketball games at Ethel and varsity games at home versus Leake Central have been canceled due to weather concerns. Information about make-up dates and times will be passed along as soon as those details are finalized.
