February is American Heart Month, a time when all people are encouraged to focus on their cardiovascular health. Last week our Gifted students and JEH Peer Helpers grades 3-6, spent the day at WCHS and learned First Aid and CPR. Mrs. Cassandra Abrams and her students shared their skills and experiences with the use of the epi-pen, treating wounds, responding to choking victims, treating shock, and CPR. The scholars enjoyed the training and are eager to assist others in need.

Dear Parents & Guardians
All students in the state of Alabama are required by law to have an Alabama Certificate of Immunization (IMM-50, Blue Slip) that is not expired.
While conducting a survey, it has been discovered that many of our students are lacking a valid blue slip. If this could possibly be a child or children of yours, please contact your child’s healthcare provider and take care of this matter as soon as possible.
Return the updated blue slip to the school nurse where your child is in attendance within a two-week timeframe of seeing this notice.
Sincerely,
Rachel Hammond-Dickerson, RN
Lead Nurse for Wilcox County Public School System
