Director's Corner - Swine Flu

Owensboro Catholic Schools has been working closely with the Green River District Health Department (GRDHD) in making preparations for the upcoming flu season. GRDHD works directly under the guidance of the Center for Disease Control, giving timely and accurate information to our community.

In addition to the seasonal flu, OCS is especially diligent in watching for symptoms of the H1N1 Flu, which is a strain of Type A Flu. Keeping your child safe and healthy while at school is a top priority. GRDHD informed us yesterday that we are seeing some cases of Type A Flu in our community and local school districts. All reported cases have been relatively mild to date. We have reports that several OCS students have been diagnosed with Type A Flu when evaluated and tested by their physician. While it is not definitely H1N1 Flu, we felt it important that you were aware of the situation so you can keep watch for flulike symptoms in your children.

H1N1 symptoms mimic the seasonal flu. Call your physician's office if you or your child has symptoms. Only your health care provider can determine if your symptoms warrant testing and treatment.Symptoms of Seasonal Flu & H1N1 Flu:
* Sudden onset of illness
* Fever (> 100 F)
* Chills
* Cough
* Lack of Appetite
* Weakness/lethargy

Other commonly reported symptoms include:
* Headache
* Sore throat
* Stuffy or runny nose
* Muscle aches
* Nausea/vomiting
* Diarrhea

OCS is on the forefront of preparing for actual or potential H1N1 cases in our schools. For weeks we have been planning and putting in place, measures to minimize germ exposure in the school setting with the goal of keeping our students, faculty, and staff illness free.

Here are some of the prevention techniques we are utilizing:
1. Educating and encouraging students, faculty, and staff to wash their hands frequently, especially before meals, after using the restroom, and after recess.
2. Each classroom and office has hand sanitizing gel present. All are encouraged to use the gel frequently throughout the day, such as when entering any classroom, cafeteria, computer lab, library, and music lab.
3. Each classroom has a supply of disinfecting wipes that are used to routinely sanitize commonly touched surfaces such as desks, tables, doorknobs, pencil sharpeners, computer & music keyboards, lunch PIN pads, etc.
4. We are encouraging and reminding all to cover their coughs and sneezes with their elbow or into a tissue.
5. Removing sick students from the classroom and sending sick students home right away if they show any flu-like symptoms. We ask that students stay home until fever-free without fever reducing medication for 24 hours.
6. Keeping our entire faculty & staff educated & updated.

For more information, visit one of the following websites:
www.flu.gov or
www.healthdepartment.org.

I appreciate all you do to help us fulfill our mission of excellence in Catholic faith formation and academics. As always, your comments and insights are important to me. I can be reached via phone at 852-8028 and email at ken.rasp@owensborocatholic.org.

God's Peace!

Congratulations to the Class of 2009. The class broke the all time school record for ACT scores with an Average composite of 22.6, eclipsing the previous high of 22.4 set by the class of 2006.


We also outpaced the state by over 3 whole points. Our scores met or exceeded all state and national averages for college readiness benchmarks. Ninety- eight percent (98%) of the class of 2009 took the ACT.


This is a testament to the hard work and dedication that we put in on a daily basis, to your tireless efforts in the classroom, and to the curriculum mapping process.

Director's Corner - Opening Day Enrollment


The first few days of the 2009-2010 school year are now history. Please join me in thanking our Father God for allowing us the incredible opportunity to share in the Mission of building the Body of Christ. What an awesome, faith inspiring task He shares with us!

Many times yesterday I was asked how the first day was going. My response to every question was wonderful. I am sure that there were hectic moments, but it was obvious that ‘we” were ready. Thanks and much kudos to our Principals, faculty and staff for making sure that all was in order, appropriate and necessary preparations were successfully implemented, and students and their families were welcomed with open arms. As I went from school to school, it was amazing to witness the outpouring of love, warmth and genuine kindness being displayed by our OCS staff. It was obvious to me that Jesus is the reason we exist.

As you read in the Messenger Inquirer this morning, our first day enrollment for 2009-2010 was 1268. It is somewhat less than the 1313 students we started with on the first day of the 2008-2009 school year. The current economic condition certainly played a part in the decrease. Based on our trend analysis over the summer, we were not surprised by the decrease and worked behind the scene to prepare for it. AS you read in the M&I, much of my conversation with the reporter centered on our need to step back from the numbers, at least for now, and celebrate the positive choice being made by many families to both continue and join for the first time this wonderful faith based partnership called Owensboro Catholic Schools. We exist, and gain much strength, because of that choice being made by each of our families. The sacrifice being made in an environment where that choice has a price tag called tuition, is awe inspiring and absolutely worthy of celebration. May God shower His blessings and grace on our families through their continued sacrifice.

Certainly in the days and weeks to come, we will spend significant time and effort reviewing and analyzing our enrollment. We do not want to just accept that the reason for the decrease in our enrollment is due to the current economic condition. Through evaluation and close scrutiny we can learn much that will aid in our continued effort to sustain a vibrant OCS for generations to come. I encourage you to share your own ideas and insight in this important process.

I appreciate all you do to help us fulfill our mission of excellence in Catholic faith formation and academics. As always, your comments and insights are important to me. I can be reached via phone at 852-8028 and email at ken.rasp@owensborocatholic.org.

God’s Peace!
