I'm so happy the school year is almost over. Anyone who needs to register for summer activities offered by the school, such as summer classes and camp, may do so in my office. Please do so before the last day of school, June 13th.
In other news: a safety advisory.
We're on a tropical island and I'd like to remind that temperatures may reach ridiculous levels of intense heat.
- Be aware of the signs of heatstroke and exhaustion. These include: fatigue, confusion, extreme thirst, cramping, and dizziness or nausea.
- The sun is strongest between 10 A.M. to 2 P.M. Apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15, 30
minutes before going outside and reapply every 2 hours as well as after swimming or excessive sweating. This is to keep you from looking like a beet or whatever edible object that's the same color your blood may be. Trust me on this one.
- On a particularly sunny day do not purposely open the curtains on anyone who may be what could be classified as "undead" because the sun may cause burning or increased rotting flesh. Just don't do it.
- Drink lots of water to stay hydrated and limit intense physical activity on really hot and humid days (limiting physical activity does not mean cease physical activity all together all summer.) Focus on replacing lost salt and minerals with water (not salt water. It doesn't work that way) and sports beverages and avoid alcoholic drinks (even though most of you won't at all this is still a safety tip.)
- Monitor those at high risk of suffering in the heat. These include: infants and young children, those 65 years or older (I'm not 65 or older. Don't monitor me.), people who are on the thicker side, those who are aquatic in nature, and those who may already be physically ill.
