February is Heart Healthy Month. Wear RED but EAT GREEN!
Thank you to Acalanes families for continuing to report COVID+ cases to us (especially Attendance), keeping your students home when they are ill, and making sure they have well-fitting masks that they wear correctly.
COVID Vaccine Most students are now eligible to get boosters – PLEASE DO!!! Despite the burden of COVID virus, our community is working hard to stay healthy and the high vaccination rate and observance of health department guidelines makes a significant difference and helps keep students in school learning. If you haven’t yet, please submit your students’ COVID vaccine records.
COVID Isolation, Quarantines and Test Kits The current guidelines for return to school after COVID illness require a negative COVID test (if returning before 10 days). If your student is testing in the School Nurse Office, please make sure they register with Primary Health. School sites do NOT have more test kits to distribute. Please see Principal Shawn’s COVID FAQ’s for more details.
Make sure you always have your proof of vaccination! Try this site- https://myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov/ iPhone users- you can now put your vaccinationrecord in your Apple Health app (and Apple Wallet).
This week’s recipe: No time this week. Used a favorite “hack” for dinner…Veggie burgers in WW pita with organic hummus spread inside and lots of sprouts and greens stuffed in it. I always keep some sauerkraut in my fridge so I’ll have some veggies if I’m out of fresh produce.
Please be in touch with me to discuss any medical, health, or wellness concerns.
Stay healthy and be well,
