October 2016 Volume 9 Dundalk High School Issue 2 Newsletter October 2016 Volume 9 Dundalk High School Issue 2 Newsletter Dear Parents: October is a great month to really focus forward on our goals for the year. We estab- lish our goals based on our vision and mission. Our vision for DHS is to educate, teach, and inspire students to be college/career ready while fostering the values of productive, contributing citizens. Each month, we examine our vision to be sure everything we do at DHS aligns with our core values. For example, we are focused on building relationships with our stu- dents through an award-winning mentoring program. This year, over 50 faculty mem- bers have volunteered their time and talent to support our youth. The goal of the pro- gram is to establish lasting relationships with the students and their families that fo- Principal cus on improving attendance, attitudes, and student achievement. Kristin Anelli In addition, October is PSAT month. At DHS, we strongly believe that preparing all students for the PSAT and SAT prepares them for life after school regardless of Assistant Principals where their paths may lead. The types of skills assessed on the SAT, such as critical thinking, logical reasoning, analysis, evaluation, etc., are lifelong skills that all of us Timothy Arrington need to have to experience success in academics or our profession. The data gathered Andrew Deming from the PSAT will help your son or daughter to understand which specific areas will need improvement prior to taking the SAT. Preparing for the SAT begins in 9th grade Brett Molin because our students need that much time to mature as young adult thinkers. Larissa Santos Parents, you can help us ensure your child’s success by encouraging them to attend school. The state accepted attendance rate is 94%, which equals no more than 2.5 PTA President absences per quarter. When students miss time at the high school level, it is an ex- Charles Sussan tremely serious matter because missing time could equate to not earning credits. Not earning credits equates to lower GPAs, difficulty in gaining college entrance, and se- rious jeopardy of not graduating on time. Recently, Dr. Michael Galiazzo, the presi- 1901 Delvale Ave. dent of Regional Manufacturing Institute of Maryland, told our students that solid attendance in high school matters. He also stated that even in the manufacturing in- Dundalk, Maryland 21222 dustry, continuing education is a must in the 21st century. The newly revised BCPS grading policy is in effect.

Page 7 From the School Nurse, Mrs. Hicks Page 8 Influenza The Flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by flu viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. The flu is different from a cold. The flu usually comes on suddenly. People who have the flu often feel some or all of these symptoms: Fever* or feeling feverish/chills – Muscle or body aches temperature greater than or equal to 100° Headaches Fahrenheit Fatigue (tiredness) Cough Sore throat Runny or stuffy nose Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea, though this is more common in children than adults. * It's important to note that not everyone with flu will have a fever. Children younger than 5 years old have a greater chance of having problems with the flu. Most chil- dren will get better without needing to go the doctor. Children with a long term condition such as asthma and diabetes are more likely to have a severe problem if they get the flu. A child of any age with severe signs of the flu should go to the doctor. If you are unsure, call your doctor and ask if you child should be examined.

She is the first Parkville High student to earn this honor. The scholarship was announced during a virtual Unsung Heroes program event hosted by McCormick and Company, Inc., on May 3. Holley and the other Charles Perry McCormick Scholarship recipient were chosen from 100 Baltimore area student athletes recognized as Unsung Heroes this year. When the women’s lacrosse team at Parkville High needed a goalie, Holley, a field player, stepped up to learn new skills to benefit the team. During the pandemic, she also volunteered to be a group leader during the team's virtual practice sessions. Her coach, Shannon McFadden, describes Holley as the team's morale booster. "She has the best attitude no matter what her role is that day," McFadden said. “Paige is everything a coach can ask for in an athlete,” said Jeff Markle, Parkville High’s athletic director. “She is an athlete who shows up every day and works as hard as possible to improve, and a great teammate whose attitude is infectious on the team.” Three of the four other students recognized with additional scholarships at this year's Unsung Heroes event also represent BCPS.
