Case
of MRSA prompts extra precautions at Pashley Elementary
April 29, 2008 A
case of CA-MRSA (Community-Associated
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus)
has been confirmed in a Pashley Elementary
School student. The student is at home under the
care of a physician, is taking antibiotics, and
will not return to school until cleared by a
physician. The classrooms, bus and areas used by
the student have been cleaned and disinfected as
a precaution. Principal Jill Bonacio sent a
letter home to all parents today detailing
school precautions and reminding everyone that
health authorities insist thorough washing of
hands with soap is the best way to prevent the
spread of MRSA.

Special teachers sponsored a Jeopardy tournament
for fifth graders. Fifth graders met in the gym
two Thursdays in a row answering questions based
on the special areas of music, art, library,
physical education, and computer. The questions
included topics taught in kindergarten through
fifth grade at Pashley. The winning classroom
will celebrate with pizza, fresh veggies, and
cupcakes at a lunchtime party after April
break. |

Parking lot safety
is a big priority.
If dropping your student off in the morning,
please park your car in a parking space and walk
your child to the door. Please do not pull in to
the bus line. Students who arrive after
8:50 a.m. are tardy and need a late pass from
the office. |

Reminders from the Nurse:
If your
child will need to take medication during the
school day, the nurse will need a permission
slip from the doctor, and also from you. Please
be sure to keep your emergency information up to
date in case we need to reach you in an
emergency. |

Call
in for Safety
It is important that parents call
in their child's absence every day he/she will
be missing school. The nurse's answering machine
is on 24 hours a day, 399-9141 ext. 4507.
If there is no call from a parent, the office
staff interrupts the classroom to verify the
student's absence and then calls the parent,
either at home, at work, or both. Please
help us by calling! |
