Dear Charlemagne Families

Dear Charlemagne Families,
I am sure you are all aware of the recent executive orders granting ICE access to our schools. In response, we have prepared a readiness plan with our office team in the event we are visited by ICE officers. Additionally, the District is in the process of completing and sharing out a Preparedness Packet for families. We will have copies of in the office for anyone who needs one. The safety and well being of our students, our children, is of the utmost importance to me and our staff. If you would like to listen to the KLCC interview with Eugene 4J spokesperson Kelly McIver, please find the link here.
Be well,
Poppy

Let’s face it, being a parent is a hard job!
At times, our emotions get in the way of our ability to access our own parenting brilliance. Wouldn’t it be nice to respond to conflict with rational thinking and problem solving? Are you ready to parent differently than you were parented? Join us as we learn to regulate our emotions and stop reacting out of impulse or tradition, so we can help our kids regulate their emotions and reactions.
Come learn, connect, and explore parenting with Conscious Discipline
We will be leading a series of workshops based on the School to Heart to Home parenting education curriculum from Conscious Discipline.
This is an approach to parenting built around the science of crafting caring and respectful relationships. An authentic, loving connection between parents/guardians and their children is the root of a healthy, thriving relationship built on trust and understanding. This is a great way to empower children to make positive choices.

Bringing Food Items to Share in Class
|
There may be times you feel inclined to bring food items to share with your student and their classmates. Please know your generosity is so appreciated. As a reminder, there may be students in the classroom that have food allergies and special dietary needs. Please be mindful of the following when considering sharing treats with your student's class:
·All items brought in must be commercially purchased and nutrition/ingredient labels available, per 4J Nutrition Services.
Please notify teacher's in advance (minimum 5 days) if you plan to bring something in. This allows time for alternative options to be made available for students with food allergies and special dietary needs. Alternatively, check with classroom teachers for dietary restrictions and bring an item safe for everyone. Please be aware, not all requests to bring food items to the classroom may be approved.

Dear Charlemagne Families,
We have had many students out this week with a variety of different symptoms and illnesses. Please remind kids to wash hands often and thoroughly! Thank you to everyone who has kept students with illness home to prevent more spread in our classrooms.
Please read below to know when students should stay home and when they can return to school.
These are the symptoms we are seeing the most at school:
- Fever of 100.4 or greater - Kids should be fever free for 24 hours without taking fever-reducing medicine.
- New cough illness - Symptoms need to be consistently improving for 24 hours (no cough or controlled cough).
- Diarrhea/vomiting- Symptom free for at least 24 hours.
Please follow up with your healthcare provider for any unresolved or lingering symptoms.
We appreciate you keeping our Charlemagne Community healthy by keeping kids experiencing these symptoms home to recover!
