Family Newsletter Week of 10/10/2024

Dear Brackett Families,

 

Here is the PTO October Newsletter. Once a month the PTO composes a newsletter highlighting all the ways they are involved within the Brackett community. This month the newsletter includes information on: 

 

  • Fall Fund Drive
  • Community Mosaic Mural
  • Green Team events
  • STEM Committee events including Astronomy Night
  • Holiday Help
  • PTO in Action
  • Reminders
  • Community News & Events

 

While I include some of these in my newsletters, please read this newsletter carefully as some items may not be highlighted.

 

Best,

Dr. Vice

From the Nurse

Reminder: Physical Exams Needed for Fourth Graders 

 

If you have not done so already, please remember to provide a copy of your 4th grader's current physical examination to the nurse's office. The physical must be from within the last 12 months and include the health care provider’s signature and the date of examination. Please send this in at your earliest convenience.

 

If your student has not had a physical within the last 12 months, kindly send me a confirmation of their upcoming appointment and provide a copy upon completion.

 

Physicals can be uploaded into the SNAP Health Portal, faxed, or mailed to me.

 

PS: If you have a student outside of 4th grade, but would still like to provide a copy of their latest physical, I will happily accept! It is always great to have students' most current health records on file.

 

Thank you!

Nurse Baras
