The final weeks of school are going to be very busy ones—there is so much going on. Please take a few minutes to scan through each edition of the Kingsley eNews so you are completely in the loop on how to enjoy every minute and ways that you can help make the end of school time a great one for every Kingsley student.
It’s time to shower
our teachers and staff with love!
This week is Staff Appreciation Week, and we have lots of
plans to show them how much they mean to us. It’s going to take a team effort though. Our Staff Appreciation Week leads still need
helpers, so please check the Kingsley website for complete details on how you
can join the team to make this a memorable week for our faculty and staff.
Don’t forget Nurse
Bostick!
National School Nurse Day is May 9, 2012. The DeKalb
County School District school nurses and clinic assistants make valuable
contributions each day to improve the health and success of DeKalb's
children. The theme for this week's
celebration is "Advocacy, Access, Achievement: Making the Connection."
This theme reflects the positive impact that our nurses and clinic staff
members have on the health and well-being of our students. Understanding that healthy children learn
better, our school nurses and clinic assistants focus on meeting the medical
needs of our children, providing education/training on many wellness and health
related topics, and serve as first responders for first aid intervention. Join
us in recognizing the great work done by our school nurses and clinic
assistants and the positive impact that they have in the lives of our children.
