Dear (Contact First Name),
Hope you enjoyed your long weekend . . . welcome back! Here
are some upcoming events to add to your calendars:
SAVE THE DATE
Underclass school pictures are Monday, September 9.
Senior class pictures will follow on Tuesday, September 10.
The PLAN test for sophomores will be Tuesday, September 24.
Parent-Teacher Conference/Open House will be Tuesday,

NEED TUTORING DURING SKORE? Students can sign up for
voluntary SKORE tutoring by accessing the Sign-Up Genius site.
Tutoring begins September 9. To register, click here.
MAPS TESTING During the month of September, your child will take tests called Measures of Academic Progress™ (MAP).
We give students MAP tests to determine your child's instructional level and to measure academic growth throughout the school year and from year-to-year in the areas of reading, language usage, mathematics and science.
All 9th and 10th grade students will take each of the 4 parts of this test on various days between September 5and September 24. For further questions, please contact Michelle Hickey at 960-0115.
FROM THE DISTRICT NURSE . . . The Northern Kentucky Health Department has asked the KCSD to inform parents and guardians
that they are seeing an increased number of Pertussis (whooping cough) cases reported in the Northern Kentucky area. Pertussis
is a contagious disease that can be spread in settings where people are in close contact.
The early cold-like symptoms of Pertussis progress to a persistent cough that won't go away and worsens with time, including explosive bursts of coughing, vomiting after a coughing episode, a high pitched "woop" at the end of a coughing episode and
low-grade fever.
If your child exhibits any of these symptoms please contact your medical provider.
The best way to prevent Pertussis is by vaccination, which is why
it is important for schools to have the proper, up-to-date immunization information for children. The Northern Kentucky Health Department recommends the Tdap vaccine for adults who work in areas of close contact and for parents of small children.
This vaccine can be obtained from the health department for $4,
if your health care provider is unable to provide it. For more information, visit http://www.nkyhealth.org/Pertussis-Fact-Sheet.aspx . Please contact the Health Department at 859-363-2072 with any additional questions or concerns.
