4/27- 5/1 Weekly Sports Update (At A Glance)

• Athletes' families should see emails from coaches for more specific information - including updates on transportation.

• Late Buses arrive at Melican for 3:30pm

• Bus times at 2:30pm when there are away games

With the warmer weather here, the Health Office would like to share a couple of reminders:

Remind your children to bring a water bottle to school and to drink water throughout the day.  The school can get hot and dry, especially in the Spring. The Health Office doesn’t have water bottles but there are four water bottle refilling stations and bubblers throughout the school. During lunch, there are cups and water available to the students.  Encouraging your child to sip water steadily throughout the day and drink more than usual if it is hot or they plan to be active is helpful in ensuring they stay hydrated.

Please remember to have your child put on sunscreen when going outside.  Even when it’s not hot or sunny out, it is still possible to get a sunburn and do damage to our skin. Sunscreen and protective wear, such as a hat, are great ways to help prevent sunburn, skin cancer and skin damage. 

Sixth Grade Caregiver Reminder: if you haven’t turned in a physical for your child to enter seventh grade, please do so or make the Health Office aware of an upcoming appointment. You should have received emails informing you of the requirements for entering Seventh Grade. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the Health Office.  To those who have already handed one in or informed us of an appointment, Thank You!
