From Nurse Kelly: Our schools are seeing an increase in the number of students contracting strep throat. Group A streptococcus bacteria are very contagious. The bacteria that causes strep throat travels in respiratory droplets that are created when an infected person coughs or sneezes. To help us reduce strep throat infections please take a moment to review the Parent Fact Sheet.
If you are planning on taking a College Express course next year, please turn those applications in ASAP. The last day to turn in an application is next Wednesday, March 15th. You still need to complete an application, even if this will be your 2nd year in the program. Application https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_g0FMoYJWdeuvv5Ofh-dX5tUBCfxl6ZY/view?usp=sharing
