There WILL BE school on Election
Day! The town will NOT require our building as a
polling place for Election Day, Tues., 11/3. Therefore,
we WILL have school. We will bank this day for a
snow day.
H1N1 Vaccine The Board of
Health is planning clinics in all RI schools over the
next months for all students to receive the H1N1 vaccine on a
voluntary basis. An H1N1 Team will vaccinate
students. AICA is tentatively scheduled
for Tuesday, December 1st. In the
meantime, we need to collect signed
consent forms for those who would like to get
the shot. Information packets were mailed to homes
by the Bd of Health. If you did not receive it, you may
go to their website www.health.ri.gov/flu/about/schoolh1n1clinics/
and download the permission slip and all
other information pertaining to this campaign including
frequently asked questions. Permission slips are also
available at the front desk. Please know that these
clinic dates are subject to change based on the availability
of the vaccine and children can only be vaccinated in the
schools that they
attend.
Photography Thank you Amy
Ruggiero for all of the beautiful photographs! What a
fantastic job you have done for us. We will be using
these pictures in a formal brochure and on the website.
Amy has taken hundreds of very professional photos.
Please let us know if you would prefer not to have your family
featured in a public way, we want to honor any concerns as we
go forward with these projects.
Dorcas Project The Dorcas Project has
been established as an outreach ministry of AICA to the
greater community on Aquidneck Island for the purpose of
sharing the love of Jesus Christ by means of providing
practical supplies for those in need. The project has
been so named after Dorcas, a God-fearing woman of the New
Testament who labored with her hands to make garments for
those in need. Her gifts of love and giving have
distinguished her as a disciple and servant of Christ, working
to do good to others. "At Joppa there was a certain
disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This
woman was full of good works and charitable deeds which she
did." Acts 9:36. The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Community Center is a multi service agency providing food,
medical care, child care and emergency disaster services to
Newport County. Their food needs are high this
year due to the economy and the donations are
significantly off from last year. We would like to
make this Thanksgiving our focus for the 2009 Dorcas
Project. The MLK Center prepares Food Baskets to
over 200 families. Please offer some non-perishable
items toward this effort over the next few weeks. Here are
some suggestions: Stuffing, Canned potatoes, Cake
Mix, Pie Crust, Beef Stew, canned Veggies, Bisquick, Rice,
soups, yams, mac&cheese, canned meats, fruits, pb&j,
cereal, pasta, juices, pudding, etc. Simply bring
your donations to school beginning this week up until the
Monday before Thanksgiving and we will deliver them to the
center.
Proverbs for the Week My son, give
attention to my words; Incline your ear to my
sayings, Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep
them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those
who find them, And health to all their
bones.
Proverbs 4:20-22 |
