Health Highlights from Mrs. Tomlinson

This fall Mrs. T's Health classes will focus on the important issues of Safety, Injury Prevention, and Communicable Diseases. For tips on encouraging Safety in your house, click here. For a fun page on good family nutrition, try here.

Later in the winter she will shift her focus to discussing Drug Awareness and Prevention (including alcohol and tobacco).

Health classes these days are alive with questions of how these topics could possibly be relevant to us in rural Grantham. Mrs. Tomlinson brings in many resources to show that we are not as isolated as we may think. Our students need to be prepared. Children have learned that they have the power to be pro-active in the choices they make in their lives. Health class is a safe place to work out some of the tough issues that they will eventually face.

Mrs. Tomlinson is looking for community members wishing to help address Health issues. Please contact her at GVS if you would like to contribute your time and expertise or drop her an e-mail at: gvsstaf@cyberportal.net
