Kids who are at school but very sick?!

by Kat_Kong

Feb 13, 2017

Hi, I am reluctant to express this to other staff at my school since it is a low performing school and there is a big problem with tardiness and absences. I had a student last week (Kinder) who came to school on 2 days with a fever and chills. I sent him to the nurse and family was unable to come and get him so he was sent back to my classroom (on ...See More

AM It is sad and nothing is funny about it. Especially humiliating him with a mask that will do nothing unless you buy the expensive ones that don't allow viruses to get through them.

I wouldn't be upset/annoyed he was the one that got people sick. Usually by the time someone is sick, even if they stay home, they have already spread it. Espe...See More

k teacher The problem with making a little "sick corner" in your
room for the child, is when you have to leave the room for
specials, lunch, recess, etc. At least if he is in the
office lying down he can sleep which is what his body

Earwax? Have you ever had to remove it?

by Never done it

Feb 12, 2017

I have noticed that either students are getting better at talking very quietly when they are telling me something or maybe I am getting hard of hearing.

Someone suggested to try removing the earwax?

Have you ever done this?

AM AS others mentioned a trip to the doc first time around.

If it's an earwax problem you can take care of it yourself. My son would lose some hearing due to that. Sometimes I had the doc do it but he said I could do it at home with no problem so I did that too.

He used a large syringe and then mixed 1/2 water, 1/2 peroxide. He kep...See More

EXERCISE ROLL CALL for Monday

by JRod

Feb 13, 2017

Today was spent trying to get my mom some relief for her back/leg pain. Doctor found nothing serious (clots or breaks) and will follow up on Friday to give the pain meds time to work.

Because we had to wait for xrays and sonogram, the day slipped away. By the time we got home, it was late afternoon and I wouldn't be able to get my outside ...See More

How has the recent election affected or changed your interactions with friends and family?

Regarding the presidential election, have you done anything differently than before (give money, attend meetings or rallies, unfriended FB friends, etc)?

Does an organization's beliefs or political stance affect how you spend or donate money...See More
