Staying Safe Between Home and School
Florida Administrative Code requires school districts to inform parents, guardians, and students at least annually in writing of their responsibilities for safe travel to and from school, the bus stop and their homes. To assist schools in fulfilling this responsibility, the Florida Department of Education Office of School Transporation has developed the brochure, “Are We There Yet? Staying Safe Between Home and School.” This brochure offers tips to parents, guardians, and students on how to stay safe.
The District automated phone message system will call each parent or guardian and inform them of this brochure and how to access the link, via the District homepage, title “For Parents: Are We There Yet? Staying Safe Between Home and School.” The brochure can also be viewed by visiting http://www.palmbeach.k12.fl.us/cms/TipsForParents.html. The parents who do not have computer access will be informed to call teh school to request this information.

H1N1 - What You Can Do to Stay Healthy
What You Can Do to Stay Healthy
- Stay informed. The CDC website will be updated regularly as information becomes available.
- Influenza is thought to spread mainly person-to-person through coughing or sneezing of infected people.
- Take everyday actions to stay healthy.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.
- Stay home if you get sick. CDC recommends that you stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.
- Follow public health advice regarding school closures, avoiding crowds and other social distancing measures.
- Find healthy ways to deal with stress and anxiety.
