Leader in Me 2019-20 School Wide Initiative:  Making Kindness Count
Our school wide goal is to have 100% of our staff and students complete their Kindness Counts Bingo Boards that have different activities and ideas for showing ways to Make Kindness Count!  We are so proud of the following LP Bolts for completing their Kindness Counts initiative so far. T-shirts are issued each day during morning announcements.  

 
Preventing the Spread of Communicable Diseases
Dear Parents:

We are asking you for your continued cooperation in assisting us to control the spread of communicable diseases ie: Flu, Strep Throat, etc.  Our goal is to make our school a healthy, safe place for both students and staff.  We will call you immediately if your child becomes ill during school hours.  You are expected to arrange for your child to be picked up AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE after receiving our call.  Our school clinic is not equipped or staffed to handle ill children for long periods of time.

Please inform us IMMEDIATELY if telephone numbers or other information on your child’s emergency card changes.  The information on this card is vital for the safety and well being of your child.

WE ASK YOU NOT TO SEND YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL IF ANY SIGNS/SYMPTOMS LISTED BELOW ARE PRESENT:

1.  Vomiting or diarrhea within past 24 hours
2.  Fever (over 100.0) within past 24 hours
3.  Sore/red throat
4.  Persistent coughing or sneezing
5.  Red watery eyes
6.  Rash
7.  Earache, drainage from ear
8.  Excessive mucus from nose (runny nose), particularly greenish-yellow mucus

Your child may return to school as soon as ALL SIGNS/SYMPTOMS ARE GONE without the help of medication or when your physician provides a WRITTEN STATEMENT indicating your child is ready to return.

If your child has a communicable disease, please call/email (ATTENDANCE@LUTZPREP.ORG) and tell us the nature of the illness and when we can expect his/her return to school.

Thank you for working with us.
