It’s been a great week at Sembach! Our teachers and students continue to work hard and make great use of their learning spaces. Students also enjoyed visiting the school store and having popcorn today—part of our First Friday tradition each month, supported by our PTO.
As we head into the coming days, we want to share a few important reminders and upcoming events:
- Kindness Week continues as we focus on spreading positivity and appreciation throughout our school community.
- Valentine’s Grams are on sale—families can choose from several options, including candy grams, 3‑D printed axolotls, class packs, goodie bags, and teacher grams.
- Monday, February 9, is a Teacher Professional Learning Day. There will be no school for students.
- Friday, February 13, is a school holiday. There will be no school for students.
- Monday, February 16, is Presidents’ Day. No school for students.
- Tuesday, February 17, is a Teacher Professional Learning Day. No school for students.
- Students will return to school on Wednesday, February 18.
- This creates a five‑day weekend for students and families. We hope everyone enjoys this time together.
- Health reminder from Nurse Lee: We are seeing an increase in illnesses. Please ensure your child is well before returning to school to help keep all students healthy and safe.
Thank you, as always, for your continued partnership and support. We truly appreciate the role our families play in helping make Sembach a safe, caring, and successful learning community.

A Message From Nurse Lee
Keep Your Child Home When:

DoDEA School Nursing Services provides the following guidelines for when students should be kept at home:
|
Temperature greater than or equal to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The student must be fever-free without the use of fever-reducing medication for 24 hours (a complete school day) before returning to school.
|
Actively vomiting or having diarrhea.
|
An illness presenting contagious symptoms
