RSL Visits Oak Hollow
Who better to promote healthy habits than professional athletes? A few Real Salt Lake players dropped by Oak Hollow Elementary on Tuesday to kick around the soccer ball with fifth-graders and answer questions about all they do to stay fit. The players were accompanied by a nutritionist who discussed the importance of hydration and a balanced diet. Thank you RSL!

Attendance Matters
Nine or less for academic success.
Attendance Matters
"Did you know that missing even two days per month puts students at significant increased risk of academic failure and eventual dropout? This includes excused and unexcused absences, and it is true for students across all grade levels, from K up to 12. We need to work together- schools, families and community members- to make sure all our kids get to school on time everyday."

Preventing Norovirus
Schools across the Wasatch Front, including in Canyons District, are deep-cleaning classrooms, restrooms, and cafeterias to combat norovirus infections. In Canyons, custodians are taking preventive measures to disinfect schools with hospital-grade disinfectants specifically listed to kill the contagious gastrointestinal illness. Canyons District has about 5.8 million square feet of space to keep cleaned, which is accomplished each day with special attention paid to touchpoints, or highly-trafficked areas with which students come into direct contact, such as door knobs, computer keyboards, and drinking fountains. “There’s a lot more to this than vacuuming and emptying trash cans,” Todd Muir, a custodial trainer for Canyons, explained to audiences of Good4Utah and KUTV2News on Sept. 10, 2018. Parents can help by reminding children of the importance of good personal hygiene. The best way to stop the spread of norovirus, which causes diarrhea, nausea, stomach pain and vomiting, is to thoroughly wash hands after using the restroom and before preparing meals or eating meals. Students or employees who are symptomatic should stay home for at least two days after symptoms stop, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
