The Qualters Ideal

"Is not that we will all agree with each other, Or even like each other every minute of the day.  It is rather that we will respect each other's rights,  Especially the right to be different.  And that, at the end of the day, we will understand that we are ONE PEOPLE, ONE SCHOOL, AND ONE COMMUNITY!"

A MESSAGE FROM MANSFIELD'S BOARD OF HEALTH NURSE:

Did you know that Lyme Disease is fairly common, not just on Cape Cod and the Islands, but right in our own back yard? Once the weather warms above 40 degrees, it is important for everyone who spends any time outdoors to do a "head to toe tick check" every day. Parents, check small children, the family pet, and yourselves. Older children can check themselves. Be sure to check all folds and creases, and the entire scalp.

If ticks are found, remove them with tweezers. Grasp the tick as closely to the skin as possible with the tip of the tweezers, and pull gently and firmly straight up. Once the tick is removed, wash the skin with soap and water. Dispose of the tick in a sealed zip bag or container. Mark the date of the bite on the calendar.

If any signs of illness or rashes occur within 6 weeks of the bite, such as "Summer Flu" symptoms (fever, headache, stiff neck, sore and aching muscles and joints, fatigue, swollen glands), seek medical attention and inform your medical provider of the date you removed the tick.

For more information, visit the MDPH Tickborne Disease Website at www.mass.gov/dph/cdc/epii/lyme/lymehp.htm.
