Character Trait of the Month
Whitehead has started working on a character trait per month in order to help our students grow in their social emotional health. This month we are working on EMOTIONAL REGULATION. We are working being aware of our emotions and that we are in control of our own emotions. A bad moment does not make a bad day! Please encourage your kiddo at home to develop these characteristics as we work through them each month!

Attention kindergarten parents! State-required vision exams are due by May 15th. If you haven’t turned in your child’s exam form yet, please submit it to the nurse’s office as soon as possible. If you need assistance or have questions, feel free to reach out to the nurse!
🏥 5th Grade Parents – Schedule 6th Grade Physicals Now!
It’s not too early to schedule your student’s required 6th-grade physical! Avoid the summer rush and first-day exclusions by booking an appointment now. If completed before the end of the school year, forms can be turned in to the nurse at Whitehead.
🦠Staying Healthy During Cold & Flu Season
Cold and flu season is still lingering! Help keep our school healthy by reminding your child to:
✔️ Wash hands often with soap and water.
✔️ Cover coughs and sneezes with their elbow.
✔️ Stay home if they have a fever (must be fever-free for 24 hours without medicine before returning).

On April 8th from 6:00 - 7:30 pm we will be hosting a community listening session. We will be discussing our plans for the Community School's Grant as well as getting your feedback! Dinner and child care will be provided! We will end the evening with an amazing raffle drawing!
