a fundraiser and coupons take away from any profit that the school

Paper Usage
We are trying to
conserve our paper usage this year and trying to reuse as much paper
as possible. Please do
not be surprised if something comes home from your child/ren’s
teacher with a strange back side, we are just reusing paper.
If you would like to receive the school newsletter in e-mail
form instead of paper form, we would be happy to accommodate you.
Please let the school office know.
Thank you!

SCRIP News
If you have
trouble using a card please save the card and let Tammy Horner or
Linnea Surprenant know so they can follow up.
They will need the serial number off the back of the card and
the location you tried to use it.
This information is used when they try to track down SCRIP
card problems.
A note from Fr. Bob
We have received
word the the H1N1 virus is now in the
Tracy
Public School
and therefore in our area and community.
If anyone is
feeling ill they are to remain home.
It is recommended to remain home for 24 hours after the fever
breaks and the treatment is over – although the CDC has said on TV
that this is a long living flu virus as the person who has had it is
still contagious and can spread the disease for 6 days after their
symptoms are over.
Frequent hand
washing and use of hand sanitizer is highly encouraged especially
with the children, along with using disinfectant in the classrooms
on desks, door knobs etc. Use
of tissues or coughing into the sleeve or elbow is encouraged to
keep the spittle and phlegm from being airborne.
