Don’t let the flu get you, and, if you are sick, stay home and get well. That’s the message Marlene Vermillion posted on Facebook earlier this week. She is the Ada school nurse.
Ada has 880 students enrolled. On Tuesday, there were 24 students out in the elementary and 18 in the high school. During the worst of the flu season last year, there were as many as 80 students absent on any given day in the high school alone.
But to prevent Ada numbers from increasing, read this note from the nurse:
The Icon invites viewers to enter its Super Bowl football contest. It’s easy to enter:
• Pick the game winner and winning point spread.
• Entry deadline noon, Sunday, Feb. 4
• One overall winner receives 2 tickets to the Shannon Theatre, Bluffton, and your choice: Ada Icon cap or Bluffton Icon cap.
• Enter as often as you want – you may only enter in your name one time. The online entry form is on the top of the Ada Icon "Calendar" page or click here.
