HI PANTHER FAMILIES ❤️
Hello September! We have completed our first month of school and are now enjoying a well deserved break. Thank you all for such an amazing start to our school year. We know that our families make our school community stronger and we cannot do this work without you. Please take some time during this break to enjoy doing things that you and your family love the most. We will continue to push for greatness throughout the month of September in all areas. Thank you all and we will see you all back in the building on Thursday!

HEAT SAFETY
Heat Safety - The following are some helpful HEAT tips for staying safe in extreme heat:
- Hydrate. Whether you feel thirsty or not, drink plenty of water to avoid becoming dehydrated, especially when you're working or exercising outside.
- Educate yourself. Keep up with the latest temperature and heat index forecasts and current readings (take actions to stay cool and safe when the temperatures hit 85 degrees, or the heat index hits 90 degrees). Know the warning signs of a heat illness, and how you can stay cool.
- Act quickly when a heat illness is suspected. Seek medical attention immediately for any of these warning signs: cramping, rapid pulse, heavy sweating, hot red skin, dizziness, confusion, nausea, vomiting.
- Take it easy. Anyone working or exercising outdoors should avoid over-exertion, especially between the hours of 11 am and 6 pm. Take hourly breaks in the shade or in air conditioning.
