Dear Janssen School Community,
With the end of this month, 2017 sunsets and 2018 resolutions will be
made. In sharing that, I wish to slow down a little and reflect on the
growth that I have noticed from our students since the start of the school
year:
Our 5K students, sorry authors, are publishing stories that evoke
proudness from their parents and teachers.
Our 1st grade readers make meaning from the books they read by us-
ing a variety of strategies.
Our 2nd grade mathematicians break down a math problem by circling
the numbers, underlining the question, boxing the key words, eliminat-
ing information that is not needed, and solve by showing their work.
Our 3rd grade readers are making meaning when reading chapter
books by searching for context clues in the texts.
Our 4th grade mathematicians are seeing the relationships with frac-
tions and converting them into decimals.
Our artists are working on their projects, just in time to share during
our upcoming winter break. ·
Our musicians are building on their musicality together by singing
more complex songs.
In phy. ed. classes, our students see the value in why it is important to
stay fit by monitoring their steps each day.
It is very exciting to witness how our students have grown, not only with
their academics but also as citizens by doing the Janssen way. This is
made possible by all the people who impact their lives on a daily basis.
I wish to recognize our 1st grade and 2nd grade musicians for their spec-
tacular performances during our Winter Concert this month. I love watch-
ing our families—their smiles, tears of joy, and applauds—watch our stu-
dents during their performances. A huge thank you to Miss St. Arnold and
staff who helped make our concert a success.
Winter break will be upon us. I want to wish each of our families a safe
and relaxing time filled with laughter and joy (and of course...any treats
that come out of the oven). We will see all of you in 2018.
Sincerely,
Hercules Nikolaou, Ph.D.
Janssen Elementary School Principal

fore school supervision

keeping our students
safe.

EMERGENCY MEDICATIONS
Please be aware that emergency medications
that are provided for use during the school day
will not be accessible before or after school
hours. Parents and students must plan ahead to
have emergency medication available during
school activities such as clubs and sports. If an
emergency arises and a student does not have
their emergency medication available, 911 will
be called.
WEATHER CANCELLATIONS AND
DELAYS
Winter is right around the corner. If weather
conditions dictate that there will be no school or
a delayed start, a decision to keep the schools
closed is usually made by 6:30 a.m. Parents with
students in school receive a direct call, text
and/or email from our auto-call system since that
is the fastest way to communicate with thou-
sands of parents at one time. As a reminder: If
you have a new phone number or email address,
please update your information in the Infinite
Campus parent portal or contact your school’s
secretary to update the portal.
Announcements are also sent to local T.V. and
radio stations, please tune to local stations such
as these rather than call the school directly:
WAPL-105.7FM, WHBY-1150AM, WKFX-
104.9FM, WEMI-91.9 FM, WGEE-1360 AM, and
WOZZ-93.5FM; and WBAY-TV2, WFRV-TV5,
WGBA-TV26, and WLUK-FOX11. If other school
events, such as concerts or sporting events are
also cancelled because of weather, they are typi-
cally communicated through these stations as
well.
The District’s website and Facebook page are not
our primary way to communicate school closures,
so we ask parents to listen to the auto-call mes-
sages or tune in to the radio and T.V. stations
listed for the timeliest updates.

NOVEMBER MVPs
When to Keep Your Child Home
Children should be kept home from school when they don’t feel well. It is important to get the rest
they need to recover, and to prevent the spread of germs to other children and the staff. If you are
unsure of when to keep your child home, please contact the school nurse or your family medical
provider.
The following symptoms may suggest a communicable disease. Children who have the following
symptoms should be kept home from school until a doctor has seen them, they no longer have
symptoms indicating a communicable disease or they have received treatment for at least 24 hours
for certain diseases.
Fever: An oral temperature of 100.00 or higher indicates a fever. If your child has a temp of 100.00
or higher at school he/she will be sent home. Your child should be fever free for 24 hours without the
use of a fever reducer (Tylenol or Ibuprofen product) before he/she returns to school.
Strep Throat: If a fever is accompanied by a sore throat, stomach ache or head ache it may be strep
throat. Strep throat is diagnosed by a throat culture obtained at a medical clinic. If your child is
diagnosed with strep throat, your child must be on appropriate antibiotics for 24 hours and fever free
for 24 hours without the use of a fever reducer (Tylenol or Ibuprofen product) before he/she returns
to school.
Vomiting and diarrhea: If your child has an episode of vomiting and diarrhea at school, he/she will
be sent home. Anyone with these symptoms should stay home until symptoms are absent for 24
hours.
Eyes: Pink eye or conjunctivitis appears as a pinkish sclera (white of the eye), it is usually itchy and
painful. Drainage or crust may form on the eyelids. Student may attend school unless he/she has a
fever, behavioral changes, or is unable to avoid touching his/her eyes. Antibiotics are not required for
return to school.
Skin problems: Rashes and infected sores needed to be diagnosed by a medical provider. Many skin
rashes such as impetigo, scabies, chicken pox, Fifth disease or Hand Foot and Mouth disease are very
contagious. Students may return to school once the rash has been diagnosed and treated for 24 hours
or cleared by a doctor. Open sores from illnesses such as chicken pox and impetigo may need to be
covered at school with bandages for several days.
Cough: A cough may be a sign of many different illnesses. If a cough is accompanied by a fever,
sore throat, body aches or any other symptoms you should keep your child home. Any cough that
lasts for more than several days should be discussed with a doctor.
Lice: If live lice are found on a student at school, the student will be sent home for treatment. The
child may return after a treatment and no live lice are found on the head. If you discover lice at
home, please contact the school nurse to discuss the best way to get rid of lice and determine when
your child may return to school.
