There are a variety of products that box tops are on, so check out the products you buy. Just clip
them out and send them in with your child.
CHOICE/REASSIGNMENT REMINDER
If you are considering choice/reassignment remember that ALL requests MUST be in by March 1st
to the Reassignment Office on Pensacola Street. This includes choice/reassignments for sibling
support and for grandfathering. Remember sibling support applies to a younger child who already
has an older sibling reassigned to Canopy Oaks and grandfathering applies to students who are
presently in 3rd or 4th grade and would like to finish their last 1 or 2 years at Canopy Oaks but
are moving into another school zone in Leon County.
Kindergarten registration is approaching fast. Registration at Canopy Oaks will be the first two
weeks of May. The following are kindergarten requirements for registration:
_ Child must turn 5 years old by 9/1/06.
_ Proof of a physical within the past year.
_ Shot records (the blue card).
_ Original birth certificate (the one without the footprints on it).
_ 2 proofs of address (Check with front office to find out what is acceptable).
If you have any questions, please call Janet Allen at Canopy Oaks (488-3301).
Nutrition Tip of the Week
All wrapped up: The latest craze is the wrap--everything is wrapped in tortillas, tacos, pitas and
pastry shells. But how healthful are these new sandwiches? Wraps can provide a quick meal, but
often provide the calories of two. Wraps can have from 400 to 1500 calories, depending on the
size and the filling so before you jump on the bandwagon, checks out the wrap. Make your own
wrap to control calories, fat, sodium and size. Load wraps with fresh veggies, a moderate amount
of lean meat and use sauces or dressings sparingly.
Physical Activity Tip of the Week
Remember your body's "spring training" fuel needs: Include plenty of carbohydrates to fuel your
muscles. Smart choices include whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables and beans. Eat carbohydrates
throughout the day, before and after workouts and training sessions. Include protein from lean
sources like meat, fish, poultry, beans and dairy foods and a moderate amount of fat. Finally,
remember to stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water and water-based beverages
throughout the day. As your activity level increases, remember to increase fluids too.
