FLU SEASON is upon us!
Good afternoon. We are seeing a lot of "influenza-like illnesses" this past week. PLEASE keep your student home if he/she is not feeling well, has or has had a fever of 100.4 or higher in the past 24 hours or has vomited or had diarrhea within the past 24 hours. I've attached a chart to help you decide.
Please call your child's school so the attendance can be properly documented. Encourage fluids, ensure adequate rest at night, and encourage good hand washing. Additionally, if your house gets hit with the germs, wash down frequently touched items such as light switches, faucets, flushes, doorknobs, etc. We are in the heart of the viral season!!

It’s Arts Alive time again! As in the past, we are excited to be able to involve the community. On Friday, June 6th, the students will be participating in a variety of art sessions. The sessions will be offered by staff and community members. As you may or may not know, this program is not paid for through the SAD4 budget process, therefore we are asking for financial support to help with art supplies, food, and end of day presentation called FrogTown Mountain Puppeteer. With this being said, we are doing a calendar raffle for the month of February. Tickets will be 1 for $5 or 5 for $20. Tickets will be put back into the bucket after they are drawn and we will draw a new ticket each day for a new prize. Our prizes have been donated from our communities of Guilford, Dover-Foxcroft, and Dexter.” Feel free to contact Danielle Williams at daniellewilliams@sad4.org or Kerri Pulkkinen at kpulkkinen@sad4.org if you would like more information on how you can get a ticket or two for our calendar raffle. We thank you for your support! - PCES Arts Alive Committee
