Principal Anna started her day with Starbucks, while she greeted Capri students at the front gate. She then spent her morning in a website meeting with Mrs. Wellendorf and Mrs. Cota, making decisions about what pictures and articles should be posted. She then visited some classrooms and read to two kindergarten classes. At recess, she strapped on her whistle and walkie-talkie and handed out Paws-some Prints. After a pizza lunch, she helped keep our school safe by assisting with our monthly fire drill.

Children's Discovery Museum provides all materials and instruction but we are looking for 13 PARENT volunteers to help facilitate the activities.

We are expecting a lot of rain this month but we don't let it stop us. Capri teachers still get our students up and moving even when they can't go outside to play. Go to @capri_cougars on Twitter to see a video of Mrs. Wellendorf and Ms. Mancuso's third grade class enjoying some "Go Noodle".

Meet our student wellness team: Office/Health Assistant Karen Eshoff, Community Liaison Debbie Nogales, and School Nurse Teresa Lawson take care of our students every day. Every day is different as they tend to students who have medical needs, such as allergies, diabetes, a playground injury, or more complex conditions. If the family has no health insurance for the child, our school nurse and Community Liaison can help them access low/no-cost community services.
If your child does not have healthcare insurance, please contact our Community Liaison, Debbie Nogales, for information about no-cost or low-cost insurance options. Call 408-364-4260 or email dnogales [at] campbellusd.org.
A grant from El Camino Hospital pays for two additional registered nurses, making it a total of four RNs to coordinate the wide range of health services for our 12 schools and more than 7000 students. It also provides Health Teacher Online curriculum, PlayWorks, Dental services, and the 5-2-1-0 program. A grant from School Linked Services pays for several of our Community Liaisons to provide an essential link between families and community based services and to organize dozens of Parent Education offerings at our schools.

- Get a flu vaccine each year.
- Avoid contact with people who are sick.
- Cover coughs and sneezes.
- Wash hands frequently.
- Get plenty of rest.
