A note from the School Clinic

It is that time of the year again, Spring. South East Texas is always beautiful this time of year, except for the

high tree & grass pollen count. Many children are having different symptoms of allergies and asthma.

I have researched other local FBISD Elementary schools to determine what is the positive proactive plan of

action that is done in relation to “allergies and recess.”

Many schools require a documented medical excuse note from a physician that specifies they must not be al-

lowed in the outside air. If the physician’s note limits play, which is most of the time sufficient for allergy

management, they will sit somewhere outside as designated by the grade level providing the supervision.

Madden will follow a doctor’s recommendation note and we will take each student’s case by case.

Playing outdoors at recess is counted as part of the time children must have by the state of Texas for daily

physical activity.

As always please contact the clinic with any questions or concerns.

Dear Husky parents,

Morning Drivers: More people than usual are beginning to bend the rules because they were in a rush in the morning. Several cars are ignoring the

crossing guard in the middle of the road, and just driving right through the crosswalks. While several other parents are having their

kids jump out on the road on Binion. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE as there is not any supervision to assist the students to safety

areas.

I will be requesting FBISD police be on the lookout for parents not putting the safety of all huskies first! "Hayward Hill" is anoth-

er road that drivers are just watching the flow of traffic and not our students crossing the street.

Please talk to your children to be extremely careful when crossing the street especially if their is not a crossing guard. We

all need to work together to follow the safety procedure that have been put in place at Madden Elementary.

Morning car rider line:

Please be mindful of the follow of traffic and please don't merge into Abermore Lane as this is NOT an option. We are all adults

and care greatly about our huskies and their safety!!!!

Thank you,

Madden Administration
