Social Media & Youth, November 17 at 6:30 p.m., Zoom
Presented by Lucia Magis-Weinberg, Md, PhD
Is there a connection between Social Media and Youth Mental Health?
While research has shown that social media can help increase feelings of connectedness, it is also associated with bullying, anxiety and feelings of low self-worth. What can we do to help youth as we navigate the digital world we live in? Join Dr. Lucia Magis-Weinberg, a physician and expert on social media and adolescent development, to discuss the risks and opportunities afforded by digital technologies.

From the School Nurse
In the last several weeks we have had many students coming to school with symptoms of respiratory and other illness. Because these illnesses spread quickly through the classroom, we are asking you to observe the following guidelines when deciding whether to send your child to school.
Please keep your child home if they have:
- A fever (>100.4 “F) or chills. Your child should stay home for 24 hours after the fever is gone, without taking fever-reducing medication (ie.Tylenol/Advil);
- A cough, muscle or body aches, difficulty breathing, loss of taste or smell;
- Significant congestion or runny nose, sore throat, reddened eyes, green or yellow drainage from the nose;
- Fatigue or headache;
- Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea (24 hours free - before returning to school).
One of the most effective ways to control the spread of illness in school is to keep your child home when symptoms first appear. Frequent hand washing, covering mouth/nose when coughing or sneezing, wearing masks, socially distancing, and receiving preventable vaccines, help prevent the spread of germs/viruses.
AN ADDITIONAL NOTE: Children with flu-like symptoms should not receive aspirin as there appears to be a statistical association of aspirin use to the later development of Reye’s Syndrome.
If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at school. Please let me know if you get a + COVID-19 test result or diagnosed flu from a HCP.

- If you have any other questions, Dorian can be reached at dorianstudio.com/support or you can call them at (800) 826-3535.
Why does attendance evern matter?
- Starting in kindergarten, too many absences can cause children to fall behind in school.
- Missing 10% can make it harder to learn to read.
- Students can still fall behind if they miss just a day or two every few weeks.
- Being late to school may lead to poor attendance.
- Absences can affect the whole classroom if the teacher has to slow down learning to help catch children up.

If your child is absent or going to arrive late, please let us know:
