As we begin another school year, we are challenged with the prospect of both seasonal and H1N1 flu viruses spreading within the community at the same time. We are closely monitoring this pandemic. It appears that the H1N1 flu is moving more quickly than anticipated. It is disproportionately affecting those 5-18 years of age and pregnant women. At this time, the virus does not seem any more virulent than we encountered in the spring and summer; but, we know that it has the potential to mutate quickly.
We have been planning for H1N1 since last spring. The health department, town departments, school administration and school nurses have worked on developing mitigation strategies and continuity-of-operations plans to manage widespread illness and absenteeism in the community and schools. An H1N1 school taskforce was formed and meets on a regular basis. Prevention measures have been implemented in the schools and at all town facilities. <More download PDF>>>
Note: We have added an H1N1 Updates link under the "For Parents" drop down link above . Please check this link for up-to-date information provided by the Town of Westford Health Department or you may click here
Mrs. Huizenga now has a blog! This blog will be used to update parents, students and the Blanchard professional learning community about what is going on BMS, the latest research about how to improve our schools, great links to check out about the latest trends in education and an opportunity to share with us your feedback.
