The MA Dept of Elementary and
Secondary Education and MA Dept of Public Health presented the
North Intermediate & West Intermediate Schools with Bronze-Level
Massachusetts School Wellness Awards. Both schools scored
extremely well of every section of the award. Coordinated
School Health staff members Amy O’Neill and Laura York were
impressed with all aspects of each school wellness program,
their coordination with school staff and the community, and the
way in which they created an exemplary whole-school approach to
fostering wellness. Both schools have gone above and beyond
what is required to ensure a safe and healthy learning
environment.
Both the North and West
Intermediate Schools received a MA School Wellness Award banner
of recognition. The featured wellness program at the West is
called “Recess Before Lunch” and the featured wellness program
at the North is called “Physically Fit Fridays.” In these
photos from the West, the banner is displayed by Dennis Shaw,
West principal; Maureen Travis, West nurse; Laura Stinson, Phys
Ed/ Health liaison, Eileen Costello, head of West cafeteria;
Doreen Crowe, Nurse Leader; Joanne Benton, Superintendent of
Schools; Beth Livermore, West phys ed/ health teacher; and fifth
grade students Marisa and Devin.

Nurse's Info for Incoming Fourth Graders
As a parent of
an incoming 4th grade student, Mrs. Travis RN BSN, school nurse,
wants to make you aware that the Massachusetts Department of Public Health
requires all 4th grade students to have a current physical exam
on file in the school nurse’s office. This exam may take place between
June 1, 2011 and June 1, 2012. Please note this physical exam is
not required prior to your child entering 4th
grade.
This exam may
be done by your child’s personal physician. However, your child may have a
health screening performed by the school physician, Dr. John Sullivan,
during the Spring. Mrs. Travis will notify parents when Dr. Sullivan will be
coming to the West Intermediate.
Physical exam
forms may be downloaded from the school website under “Nurse” or you may use
your own physician’s form. If you have any questions or comments, please
contact Mrs. Travis directly at 978-694-6025. |
