A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL — TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT The teachers at York High School are consistently and regularly working to improve their craft. On a weekly basis, we utilize our early-dismissal Wednesdays to professional development activities in a variety of forms. Wednesday meetings could include curriculum work, discussions about MAP testing, various trainings, book studies, department meetings (such as SPED dept., English dept., etc), as well as meetings to discuss our annual MLK Day. In addition to these meetings, once per month the teachers in each building get together as a group with their administrators and focus on YPL (York Principles of Learning) teaching strategies. Teachers read passages and articles about research-based teaching methods, and choose a strategy to implement in their classroom. Then, at the following monthly meeting, each teacher writes a reflection about how that strategy worked in their classroom, followed by studying about other strategies and picking a new one to implement for the month. Besides the weekly Wednesday meetings, YHS teachers also hold 7:30 a.m. meetings for various purposes. Approximately once per month, the principal meets with “grade-level team”…groups of teachers who primarily teach one grade-level of students. During these meetings, we talk about specific students, including our concerns, updates on their academics, absences, etc. These meetings help put everyone on the same page and helps us all learn more details than we might ordinarily know. ICU REMINDERS As you know, YHS (as well as YMS and upper grades at YES) have been using the ICU system for a few years now.

ONE-ACT PRODUCTION

What an exciting time to be a DUKE! The cast and crew for the York One-Act are venturing back to 1888 London this season with their production of The Forgotten. This historical story focusing on the terror felt around the world when Jack the Ripper (Eric Yim) went on a killing spree and terrorized the forgotten women of Whitechapel. Specifically, the murders of Polly Nichols (Laura Eckhart), Annie Chapman (Aislinn Luther), Elizabeth Stride (Kirstin Fike), Catherine Eddowes (Lauren Peters), and Mary Kelly (Sophia Chavanu) historically changed the way reporting and criminal investigation was conducted in the future. Inspector Aberline (Jake Schmid) and Inspector Swanson (Drew Baldridge) are continually in pursuit of this masked man, but will an immigrant (Andrea Saxer) get in their way? Who could this killer be?

The show is written by R. Richard Rudy Walz and adapted for the stage by Becky Stahr. Original score and lyrics are composed by Sophia Chavanu and Jacob Howe. This show does contain a strong subject matter, simulated weapons, and strobe lighting. It will be thirty minutes long. The one-act program could not be more excited to start our competition season in November. The cast and crew has already learned a lot by studying this historical time

period and have been working hard since August. They can not wait to bring this story to life on the stage! The one-act team would love to have the York community come out and support our team members at every contest and performance. Thank you all for your continued support of this program. Go Dukes!

TUITION REDUCTION PROGRAMS Various two and four-year colleges and universities in Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, and Missouri participate in the Midwest Student Exchange Program which reduces tuition to in-state cost. Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Missouri, offers the Western Neighboring State Scholarship which provides in-state tuition scholarships to students from Nebraska, Kansas, Illinois or Iowa. Seniors may pick up information in the Counseling Office if interested in either of these programs.

WAITING LIST REMINDER Some community and vocational/technical schools may have waiting lists for students who wish to enter certain programs. Some programs could have up to a one-year waiting list. (Since Southeast Community College-SCC—just switched to semesters in 2019-20, they are anticipating that fall semesters may be impacted in this way for a few programs – especially on the Milford campus.) To be placed on a waiting list, a student must take the Accuplacer test, apply for admission, and be accepted into the program. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors who are interested in vocational and technical areas are encouraged to visit the Counseling Office as soon as possible to begin this process and/or check with your college to ask about the related time frame for interests. Remember when applying to still select your preferred starting date as there are sometimes last-minute cancellations by others ahead of you. PSAT TEST RESULTS Results will be sent home in December, along with their test booklets if they wish to check their answers with the test questions. This provides each student with an excellent opportunity to learn from the results of the test. Please review the results with your son/daughter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Counseling Office. BUSY MONTH OF CAMPUS VISITS YHS eleventh graders will visit University of Nebraska-Kearney on Wednesday, November 20. YHS tenth graders will make their campus visit to Wayne State College on Tuesday, November 5. We will also be making a visit to Northeast Community College in Norfolk on November 12 for interested students who sign up in the Counseling office. The last November event is a tailgate and tour at Peru State College on Saturday, November 16. Students must sign up in advance to be part of this special Peru visit. Lunch and transportation are provided for all of these visits. If you have any questions, let us know. SENIOR COLLEGE VISITS Your senior has two exempt absence days to use for college visits. We encourage students to use these days to step foot on campuses in which they are interested to get a true feeling of life there. Most of the colleges have a page on their website to set up the visit yourself. If you need assistance setting up these visits, please call Mrs. Stuhr in the counseling office. We’ll be glad to help make this happen. SUSAN T. BUFFETT SCHOLARSHIP The Susan T. Buffett scholarship application opens November 1. This scholarship can be used at any Nebraska community college, state college or university. Seniors must have a 2.5 GPA and have financial need. Check it out at buffettscholarships.org Deadline is February 1, 2020, at 4 p.m. FAFSA HELP IS HERE ….AT YHS! Just a reminder that we have Amanda here from EducationQuest to assist parents in completing the FAFSA and/or answering any college financial or scholarship questions. Appointments may be set up through Mrs. Stuhr in the Counseling office. She will be here November 1 (all appointments filled), November 15 (several openings yet) and December 13 (several openings yet). More dates will be set for 2020. You may also schedule an appointment to have conversations about colleges or scholarships. Amanda is a wealth of knowledge in many related topics! TENTH GRADERS REGISTERING Tenth graders will work individually with their counselors in November and early December to get registered for their junior year classes and review their four-year plans. Prior to this, each sophomore will receive a list of classes from which to choose. Ask your child about this and have a conversation or two about their plans and interests. It would be a sheet you can and should review and complete together.

The Flu: A Guide For Parents FLU INFORMATIONWhat is the flu? Influenza (the flu) is an infection of the nose, throat,

and lungs caused by influenza viruses. There are

many different influenza viruses that are constantly

changing. Flu viruses cause illness, hospital stays and

deaths in the United States each year.

The flu can be very dangerous for children. Each year

about 20,000 children younger than 5 years old are

hospitalized from flu complications, like pneumonia.

How serious is the flu? Flu illness can vary from mild to severe. While the flu can be serious even in people who are otherwise healthy, it can be especially dangerous for young children and children of any age who have certain long-term health conditions, including asthma (even mild or controlled), neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions, chronic lung disease, heart disease, blood disorders, endocrine disorders (such as diabetes), kidney, liver, and metabolic disorders, and weakened immune systems due to disease or medication.

Children with these conditions and children who are receiving long-term aspirin therapy can have severe illness from the flu.

How does the flu spread?Most experts believe that flu viruses spread mainly by droplets made when people with the flu cough, sneeze or talk. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby. Less often, a person might get the flu by touching something that has flu virus on it and then touching their own mouth, eyes or nose.

What are the symptoms of the flu? Symptoms of the flu can include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills, fatigue and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea (more common in children than adults). Some people with the flu will not have a fever.

How long can a sick person spread the flu to others?People with the flu may be able to infect others by shedding virus from 1 day before getting sick to 5 to 7 days after. However, children and people with weakened immune systems can shed virus for longer, and may be still contagious past 5 to 7 days of flu illness, especially if they still have symptoms.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDHow can I protect my child against the flu?To protect against the flu, the first and most important thing you can do is to get a flu vaccine for yourself and your child.

u Vaccination is recommended for everyone 6 months and older.

u It’s especially important that young children and children with long term health conditions get vaccinated. (See list of conditions in “How serious is the flu?”)

u Caregivers of children with health conditions or of children younger than 6 months old should get vaccinated. (Babies younger than 6 months are too young to be vaccinated themselves.)

u Another way to protect babies is to vaccinate pregnant women. Research shows that flu vaccination gives some protection to the baby both while the woman is pregnant and for up to 6 months after the baby is born.

Flu vaccine is updated annually to protect against the flu viruses that research indicates are most likely to cause illness during the upcoming flu season. Flu vaccines are made using strict safety and production measures. Over the years, millions of flu vaccines have been given in the United States with a very good safety record.

AngelD

Is there a medicine to treat the flu? Antiviral drugs are prescription medicines that can be used to treat and prevent influenza illness. They can make people feel better and get better sooner. Antivirals can mean the difference between having milder illness instead of very serious illness that could result in a hospital stay. Antiviral drugs are different from antibiotics, which fight against bacterial infections. They work best when started during the first 2 days of illness. It’s very important that antiviral drugs are used early to treat the flu in people who are very sick (for example, people who are in the hospital) or who are at high risk of having serious flu complications. Other people with flu illness may also benefit from taking antiviral drugs. These drugs can be given to children and pregnant women.

What are some of the other ways I can protect my child against the flu?In addition to getting vaccinated, you and your children can take everyday steps to help prevent the spread of germs.

These include:

u Stay away from people who are sick.u If your child is sick with flu-like illness, try to keep

him or her in a separate room from others in the household, if possible.

u CDC recommends that your sick child stay home for at least 24 hours after his or her fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. The fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.

u Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after it has been used.

u Wash hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.

u Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way.

u Clean and disinfect hard surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs, including bathroom surfaces, kitchen counters and toys for children. Clean by wiping them down with a household disinfectant

according to directions on the product label.

These everyday steps are a good way to reduce your chances of getting sick. However, a yearly flu vaccine is the best protection against flu illness.

IF YOUR CHILD IS SICKWhat can I do if my child gets sick?Talk to your doctor early if you are worried about your child’s illness.

Make sure your child gets plenty of rest and drinks enough fluids. If your child is 5 years and older and does not have other health problems and gets flu-like symptoms, including a fever and/or cough, consult your doctor as needed.

Children younger than 5 years of age – especially those younger than 2 years old – and children with certain chronic conditions, including asthma, diabetes and disorders of the brain or nervous system, at high risk of serious flu-related complications. If your child is at high risk for flu complications, call your doctor or take them to the doctor right away if they develop flu-like symptoms.

What if my child seems very sick? Even previously healthy children can get very sick from the flu.

Make sure your child gets plenty of rest and drinks enough fluids. If your child is 5 years or older and does not have other health problems and gets flu-like symptoms, including a fever and/or cough, consult your doctor as needed:

u Fast breathing or trouble breathingu Bluish or gray skin coloru Not drinking enough fluids (not going to the bathroom

or not making as much urine as they normally do)u Severe or persistent vomitingu Not waking up or not interactingu Being so irritable that the child does not

want to be held u Flu-like symptoms improve but then return

with fever and worse cough u Has other conditions (like heart or lung disease,

diabetes,or asthma) and develops flu symptoms, including a fever and/or cough.

Can my child go to school, day care or camp if he or she is sick?No. Your child should stay home to rest and to avoid giving the flu to other children or caregivers.

When can my child go back to school after having the flu?Keep your child home from school, day care or camp for at least 24 hours after their fever is gone. (The fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.) A fever is defined as 100°F (37.8°C) or higher.
