COMMUNITY ARTICLE from falling further behind These in the moment interventions not only prevent students from losing ground but can fill gaps that might be residual from previous absences ensuring that all students continue to progress toward standard goals for their grade level The habits and skills cultivated through consistent school attendance lay the foundation for future success Employers and higher education institutions often value attributes such as reliability punctuality and a strong work ethic qualities that are honed through the discipline of regular attendance In addition there s evidence to suggest that consistent school attendance early in a student s education can have impacts on their likelihood of completing high school The National Center for Education Statistics found that by sixth grade a leading indicator for a student to drop out was chronic absenteeism Chronic absenteeism is defined as missing 18 or more school days a year That might seem like a lot but breaks down to a student missing school less than two days per month Showing up for school matters It s not just about ticking off the attendance boxes it s about paving the way for success Each class and each lesson contributes to the overall educational experience As parents we can have an opportunity to influence our children s success simply by making sure they are at school every day Eva Craner Public Relations Director Twin Falls School District REIMAGINE PEFDroIAnTtiReIrCPSe ds 1 4 Page KIDS DESERVE TO BE Vertical HAPPY HEALTHY Same day visits Being cared for by people who really care Having fun at the doctor CALL US TODAY 208 595 5095 MV Peds Cancer 1 4 Page Vertical Frontier Full 02 3 indd 1 9 2 19 11 17 AM February 2024 5

HEALTH WELLNESS sponsored by sponsored by SPOTLIGHT Nausea and Vomiting Nausea and vomiting are common occurrences and can be extremely uncomfortable for whoever experiences them There are many causative factors that can trigger nausea and vomiting some of those might include motion sickness the early stages of pregnancy certain medications infection viruses bacteria food poisoning various smells or odors head injury and others The primary concern with vomiting is the risk of dehydration especially in children Oftentimes diarrhea is present with nausea and vomiting and furthers the risk of dehydration When nausea and vomiting does occur it can be selflimiting for example when a person experiences motion sickness and becomes nauseated and proceeds to vomit generally the nausea and vomiting is short lived and the person begins to feel better shortly after However in other cases a person may need to seek medical attention if the nausea and vomiting persist for a prolonged period of time especially if signs of dehydration are present If an adult experiences nausea and vomiting for more than a day it s a good idea to visit your doctor However children can become dehydrated very quickly and need to see their doctor if nausea and vomiting last longer than a few hours especially if they have not urinated within that time frame Some of the signs of dehydration that one might see include a dry mouth a fast heart beat or fast breathing headaches muscle cramping confusion lack of energy dark colored urine or not urinating for several hours and in infants a dry diaper for more than 3 hours If vomiting occurs one should avoid eating solid foods until the nausea subsides and should try to drink small amounts of clear liquids to stay hydrated Pedialyte is a good idea to help replace lost electrolytes and fluids Once the nausea has subsided a bland diet should be started This may include foods such as toast saltine crackers broth bananas or rice This will help reduce irritation to the stomach and provide some nutrition until a normal diet can be restarted Jonathan Pittard PA C Scott M Cook NP S 208 736 7422 OPEN 8AM TO 7PM SEVEN DAYS A WEEK www picctf com We ve moved across from Walmart in Twin Falls 10 w w w s o u t h e r n i d a h o k i d s c o m
