FITNESS TESTING IS AROUND THE CORNER!! 9/14 - 9/28

In all grades, Wellness Fitness Testing will be held on 9/14/16 - 9/28/16.  We utilize theFitnessGram protocol for which more information can be found at http://fitnessgram.net/home/.  
If your child has a history of asthma, please provide Nurse Nims with a WPS medication order form so that your child may use his or her inhaler while at school.  Be sure that your child brings his/her albuterol inhaler to gym during fitness testing weeks. The Wellness Staff would also like to ask all families to be sure their children eat breakfast and stay hydrated especially on fitness testing days.  This testing is vigorous and failure to eat or drink adequate amounts of fluids can result in headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness or fainting.
Thank you!

~The Wellness Staff and Marcia Nims, RN, BSN
