Summer Sun Safety

As we approach a hopefully fun filled summer, please remember to enjoy your time in the sun responsibly. 2 blistering sunburns before age 20 can leave you with a 80% higher chance to getting a form of skin cancer. Apply sunblock often and especially if you have been sweating or in the water. If you take care of your skin now, it will take care of you later. Happy Summer!

To include more fruits in your diet try visiting the “salad bar” at breakfast!

To include more whole grains in your diet try making a sandwich with one slice of whole wheat bread and one slice of your favorite bread!

To include more nuts in your diet try snacking on a handful a day, vary the type!

To include more beans in your diet try the hummus!

Town Hall Meeting: Underage Drinking Prevention

Discussion on Underage Drinking

The Norton Task Force and Norton Public Schools will be sponsoring a Town Hall Meeting on the dangers of Underage Drinking. This meeting is open to all members of the community. Parents of students in the Norton Public Schools are encouraged to attend this meeting. State Rep Jay Barrows will be moderating the discussion and a panel of experts has been put together to give their feedback on this issue. Audience members will get an opportunity to ask questions of the panel at the end. Hopefully as a community we can come up with some ideas on how to combat the issue of underage drinking within our community.

Distracted Driving

From discussing this topic in class and watching clips from the Oprah Winfrey Show you learned about the dangers of distracted driving. Has your opinion about how distracted you may be as a driver or how distracted the person driving you may be changed as a result of what you learned? What can you do to help prevent distracted driving accidents from happening in the future? Why is distracted driving more dangerous than even drunk driving? Share a personal story if you so chose.
