					<description><![CDATA[We invite you to join us for our first play of the year, EPIC PROPORTIONS. It is  under the direction of our new theater arts teacher, Kaiden Maines. 
"Set in the 1930s, EPIC PROPORTIONS tells the story of two brothers, Benny and Phil, who go to the Arizona desert to be extras in the huge Biblical epic Exeunt Omnes. Things move very quickly in this riotous comedy and before you know it, Phil is directing the movie, and Benny is starring in it. To complicate matters further they both fall in love with Louise, the assistant director in charge of the extras. Along the way there are gladiator battles, the Ten Plagues and a cast of thousands portrayed by the actors."
Here is a list of dates and times and a link to purchase your online tickets! Seating is limited, so don't wait!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[COVER YOUR COUGH
Use a tissue to cover your mouth and nose when you
cough or sneeze. No tissue around? Your sleeve will do.

WASH YOUR HANDS
Wash your hands often. Scrub for at least 20 seconds
with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand cleaner.

STAY HOME
If you get sick, stay home until you’re well so you don’t
spread your germs. Steer clear of others who are sick.

If your child is running fever, keep them home until they have been 24-hours fever free.

KEEP YOUR GERMS TO YOURSELF - STOPPING THE FLU IS UP TO YOU]]></description>

				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.bgisd.org/apps/news/article/807414</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[We are seeing many cases of flu and strep. Please help us keep the illnesses down by doing the following:
1. Wash your hands frequently. Soap and water are the best. Hand sanitizer works when you cannot use soap and water. 
2. Cough or sneeze into your elbow or a tissue, then wash your hands.
3. Stay home until you are 24 hours fever free without taking any medicine.
Students can bring hand sanitizer and a bottle to drink water out of to avoid sharing germs.
Please remember that returning to school before you are well or fever free makes it easier to get sick again and exposes others to the germs. 
Thank you for your cooperation,
Cheryl Hollingsworth, RN
BGISD District Nurse]]></description>
