Flu Season Is Here
If your child has a fever today, please do not bring them to school tomorrow.
If you have to give them ibuprofen or acetaminophen in the morning before school "to get them through the day", then they should not come to school.
If your child has vomiting and/or diarrhea today, they should not be at school tomorrow.
Please, please, please do not send your sick, still recovering from illness, feverish kid to school to infect the healthy students and staff. Thank you.
 
Dr. Seuss Café ~ Coming up Soon on February 12th & 13th!
The elementary staff at Christian Life Schools love to promote literacy and a love for reading! The staff and students are hosting their annual "Dr. Seuss Café" on Wednesday & Thursday, February 12 & 13. The Dr. Seuss Café is a fun place where parents come to "order" a Dr. Seuss book off of a menu, and read for 30 minutes with their child or grandchild. Each class is greeted by the "Cat in the Hat" and a student server "waits" on each table and is responsible for taking the orders and serving Dr. Seuss treats to all of the café guests. Families enjoy the great Dr. Seuss classics with one another throughout the 30-minute visit. Be watching for an invitation from your student letting you know the day and time their class will be visiting the café.
