Reading the Coordinator’s COREner Pays: Congratulations Jaspreet Kaur, Corebaby junior, who won the Princeton Prize for Race Relations!

The students made PSAs that tackled issues like poverty, discrimination, youth empowerment, and by working and spending time together, students learned to respect each other.

Flu Season: As you may have heard, this year’s flu season has wreaked havoc on most of the country. Please do your part to keep yourself and your community, us, healthy by doing the following:
- If you are sick with flu-like illness, fever or feeling feverish/chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, fatigue (tiredness), vomiting and diarrhea, please stay home.
- The CDC recommends that you stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. (Your fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.)
- While sick, limit contact with others as much as possible to keep from infecting them.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand wipe.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way.
- Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs like the flu.
- The CDC strongly recommends getting a flu shot, if at all possible.
