From the nurse’s office Happy Catholic Schools Week! We hope everyone enjoyed the VIP day with your

child. It has been a great week!

Well Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow which means another

six weeks of Winter! Since the cold weather will be here for a little while longer,

please remember to send your child with appropriate outerwear including hats and

gloves for outdoor recess.

Just a friendly reminder, that Nurse Karen works Monday and

Thursdays, Nurse Joelle is here on Tuesdays and Nurse Lauren on Wednesdays

and Fridays. When sending emails to us, please remember to send it to

nurses@olphschool.org. We are in constant communication with each other, but

sending correspondence to the above email would help to ensure that all important

information is shared. Thanks so much for your cooperation.

Sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish between the cold

and the flu. Detailed below is a chart from the Centers for Disease Control

(www.cdc.gov) with some important information that we hope you will find

helpful.
