Please see Mrs. Rok to see if you have a physical on file or are coming on November 20 th. Please remember to get a FLU SHOT! The flu peaks from December through February. The CDC recommends a flu shot for anyone over the age of 6 months, especially with any chronic condition: asthma, neurological problems, chronic lung disease, heart disease, blood disorders, endocrine problems (diabetes), kidney disorders, liver disorders, metabolic disorders, and weakened immune system. The flu (influenza) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by flu viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. The flu is different from a cold and usually comes on suddenly. People who have the flu often feel some or all of these symptoms: fever (not always present) or feeling feverish/chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, and fatigue. (CDC: Flu Symptoms & Severity). Prevention is important during flu season. The CDC recommends that you take every day preventative actions to stop the spread of germs: try to avoid close contact with sick people stay home if you are sick (fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine) cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze wash your hands often with soap and water avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth germs spread this way Art 3
4 Images in Black & White is the current exhibition at the Seekonk Public Library and features outstanding art work by students at Seekonk High School. The exhibit will run the entire month of November and includes pen and ink compositions, still life value drawings, linoleum block print self-portraits, scratchboards and ceramics. This is the third exhibit by students in both Mrs. Machado-Cook s and Mrs. Wilbert s classes. Another exhibit is scheduled for The Meadows in spring 2015 and will feature sculpture. We hope you enjoy the exhibit and we welcome your feedback. Set Your Calendars to Sign Up for Parent Teacher Conferences SHS will host Parent-Teacher Conferences on Thursday, November 20, 2014 from 6:30 8:30 PM. This year, SHS will again use the online service called SignUp Genius to manage how parents and teachers schedule conferences to discuss their student s progress and performance. From Friday, November 14 at noon through Monday, November 17 at noon, families will have access to a button on the SHS homepage that will link to the Sign Up Genius online site. Families can then sign up for 5-minute time slots to meet with particular teachers and receive reminders of their scheduled time slots. Please note that it is not possible to sign up before November 14 in order to be fair to all families. Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback from last year, SHS is again using this system to better stay on schedule and show respect for everyone's time. If are unable to schedule a convenient time during the evening or feel you would like more time with a teacher, we encourage you to contact your student s teachers directly to schedule an appointment on another day. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Suzanne Larson at (508) , ext From the Social Studies Department Mrs. Yttredahl's Economics class on Monday, November 3rd enjoyed a presentation from Andrew Quinn, a Financial Consultant from Rockland Trust in Seekonk and Deb Faria, the Branch Manager. Since the students are participating in a National Stock Market Game Mr. Quinn was able to bring in real-world experience and knowledge to the simulation. He discussed how world and national events (like the election on Tuesday) can affect the stock market as well as the change in demographics. Helping students understand Investments choices in the long run versus the short run. Students also had an opportunity for a question and answer session with Mr. Quinn. 4
