COMMUNITY NEWS
It Takes a Village
Thank you to (Dr.) Sarah Cherny for taking time this morning to show our students what a healthy hand washing technique should look like. At our school assembly, Sarah (Cerys and Sabina’s mom) demonstrated how the medical community uses hand washing with soap and water to stop the spread of germs. She answered students’ questions and encouraged us all to do this to stay healthy. Thank you, Sarah!
