Nurse Check In

I talked with the school nurse again today, and she was very helpful. She said that I have a good start as far as organizations go and I hope she's right.
A few things the nurse suggested that she's trying to get to come is:

• A nutritionist
• Flu shots
• A blacklight to show the difference between your hands before and after they are washed
• Dental health

Also, I recently e-mailed Monica Naik from the Neurology Department at Children's Hospital, who used to be my doctor. I'm hoping I can either interview her or she can attend the health fair for my own table relating to headaches and migraines.

Making Progress

I was finally able to talk to Mr. Zinga on Thursday and talk about using the cafeteria and my plans for the health fair. He suggested talking to the school nurse. Ms. Savido and I went to talk to the nurse and she is glad to help out.
So, I created a list of all of the health organizations I have contacted (and might contact) and their responses to send to the nurse. I'm hoping she can help me to set this up and maybe recommend a few more organizations to contact. Since the nurse is new this year, I still need to explain how parent conference day works, and figure out the time the health fair will run(afternoon or evening).
I finished and turned in the rewritten rubric and outline for my research paper, so now I just have to start the paper. I might use my proposal to get my ideas flowing.
Since we have off Wednesday through Friday for the G20, and I am not coming tomorrow, I hope I can get some things done while we're off. My goal is to start my research paper and to continue contacting organizations and making concrete plans for the health fair.

Problems

I've come across a few problems with my grad project lately. Although I have my computer back, the internet has been really slow lately, making it difficult to complete my notes. I did finish my works cited and have all of the sources for the notes, it's just trying to access them that's the problem. Yesterday, I thought I lost my grad project folder, but luckily it was just hidden in my locker. I am really trying to work on making sure I can have my action plan ready soon, but I'm going to have to call the organizations because they don't respond to e-mails very well.

FINALLY

So, I finally got my laptop back, even though I don't even think it's the one that I turned in..
After figuring out some password and H-drive issues, I was finally able to start working on my graduation project on it. I am currently waiting to talk to Ms. Savido about my action plan so that I can give more notice to organizations and students. I still need to send a letter (which I wrote today) to Wertheimer to make sure I can use the school cafeteria. I finished my list of students with health topics and should probably talk to them soon.
I contacted organizations and possible places that can donate refreshments yesterday online, but I have to call all of them, too.
I really hope I can pull off this action plan and that it is successful.
I still need to finish my notes and outline (because of my computer), so I'm going to try to work on my grad project over the 3-day weekend.

Back to Work

I still have not gotten my laptop back because it is broken (I'm currently using someone else's), and it has really set me back from getting work done. For the first three days without a computer, I wrote out things I need to get done soon for the research part and action plan. I'm really trying to make sure I have my action project planned since I am aiming to have it on October 12th (parent teacher conferences) in the cafeteria. I made a list of health organizations and possible places that can donate refreshements and have begun to contact these places/organizations.
I really do need to work on finishing notes and starting my paper, but right now I'm more worried about making sure this health fair is planned out. I need to still see what students can help out.
I hope this works out.
