H1N1 Clinic to Be Held at Tekoppel

An H1N1 Clinic will be held at Tekoppel on February 3, 2010 from 8:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M. ONLY the Nasal Mist Vaccine will be available. You will need to fill out a consent form for your child to get the vaccine. If you did not receive a consent form, please contact the main office. .

We invite you to peruse these pages to see what opportunities our students have in academic and extra-curricular activities, gather information regarding ISTEP+ testing, explore our library links for a variety of information including homework tips, and find valuable school information from our nurse and counselor. You can find information about what to do if schools are on a delayed opening, are dismissed early, or are closed due to inclement weather.  You will also be able to catch a glimpse of how Tekoppel students utilize technology and access links to many internet resources for students, parents, and teachers. 

Thank you for visiting Tekoppel School's web site. Please come back soon!


Winter Weather Delays and Snow Make-Up Days

Winter weather in Evansville can be unpredictable!  In the mornings when school is delayed, parents have many questions.  You can find answers by clicking the "Delayed Opening Information" tab on the left-hand side of this page.



H1N1/Seasonal Flu Information

Any influenza virus can be spread easily from person to person so we, as a community, need to take some simple steps to reduce the spread of the seasonal flu as well as the H1N1 virus.

Here's what you can do to help:
•Wash your hands often with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer (60% or more alcohol).

•Do not share personal items like food, drinks, or utensils.

•Cover your coughs and sneezes by using a tissue or the inside of your elbow or sleeve.

•Know the signs and symptoms of the flu.
     •Fever of 100ºF or greater
     •Cough
     •Sore throat
     •Runny or stuffy nose
     •Body aches
     •Headache
     •Feeling very tired
     •Vomiting or diarrhea may accompany the H1N1 virus.

•Keep sick children home for at least 24 hours AFTER they no longer have fever WITHOUT using fever-reducing drugs.  This will reduce the number of people who get infected and is a good rule for adults to follow, too.

•Do not send children to school if they are sick. 
     •Please do not give your child a fever-reducing medicine and send them to      
      school.  They are still contagious.
     •If your child has fever at night but does not have fever in the morning, they
      are still considered sick.  Viral infections will produce a fever in the late 
      afternoon and into the evening.  The fever usually is gone in the morning, but
      it reappears the next afternoon or evening.

We greatly appreciate your help with this matter!  Working together, we can help our children stay healthy!
