Mr. T advises students to "Stop the Spread" of ….
Mr. T (a.k.a. Bluffton Elementary School principal Ben Thiel) recently sent home a variety of reminders to the families of students.
Two are pretty good advice for the general public:
Stop the spread of BCD
#BCD: This is an acronym that we will use at Bluffton Elementary to remind ourselves not to Blame, Complain, or Defend our circumstances on anyone or anything else. Join us as we continue to stop the spread of BCD this year when there are so many issues and excuses to BCD about. For more explanation please see the video linked here: Two Minutes with TK #9: No BCD
Stop the spread of germs
Thiel also instructs families to keep children home if they have conditions that could be contagious, such as fevers, rashes, vomiting, diarrhea, lice, etc.
The attached chart details when children should stay home.
