She is married to a retired airline pilot and lives in Prineville, Or egon. Saphronia Katchia has stepped into a new venture as she took the Budgets, Contracts and Grants Analyst position in May 2002. Ms. Katchia employment began when she soil was in school. As a summer youth worker she Museum announces ticket price The Museum At Warm Springs has adjusted the price to their drawing tickets. From $5 each, 6 for $25 it will be $2 each and 6 for $10. The prizes will remain the same. For the people who pur chased the tickets at the higher Tips offered School is only two weeks a way, to be exact it is only ten working days before the buses began mak ing their rounds. Now is the time to begin getting a bedtime rou tine started. School aged children need nine to ten hours of sleep per night. It is suggested that half an hour before bedtime be put aside to have "quiet" time. This can be used reading, coloring or listening to quiet music before the lights go out Elementary students may have an easier time getting this amount than older students whose body clocks are pro grammed to stay up later and sleep in. It is said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. If one does not eat at home, there are breakfast programs in the schools. Still there are hungry stu dents because excuses are made such as "not enough time," "par ents aren't available to help them get breakfast," "not hungry in the morning," or a "dislike of break fast food." A suggestion is for the parent to help the student pack a mini-breakfast the night before so they can eat on the bus or during a morning recess. Or try to get the child up five to ten minutes ear lier for a bowl of cereal. Any kind of food is beneficial to start the school day. The next big item is "shots." Before the student starts school, make sure they have their oral polio, DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertusis), hepatitis B series and MMR (measles, mumps and rubella vaccines are current and the school has a copy of it on record. If a student reaches jun ior high and has not yet had chicken pox, it is recommended they receive a chicken pox vac cine. There were reports of recent outbreaks of meningitis on col lege campuses. Meningitis can be a fast and deadly disease because symptoms are often mistaken for the flu. College students, particu larly freshman who are exposed to shared environments or group living situations are at a higher risk than most. It is strongly recom mended to get a meningitis vac cine. Adolescents need a I Iepatitis B vaccine because most kids over the age of ten were not inoculated against this life threatening dis ease. I Iepatitis B is a liver disease Saphronia Katchia the Spilyay she became a re porterphotographer Intern and worked half time while attending her senior year. After working with Spilyay for seven years she decided to try something differ ent, which led her to apply for the Office Administrator with the Fi nance Department where she has been since January 1996. In the Finance Department Katchia found herself wearing many hats, ones that kept her busy such as Executive Secretary for the Chief Finance Officer, Purchasing Agent in the Purchasing office, Travel Desk Accountant for the Tribal Council, and now the Bud gets, Contract and Grants Analyst price, it will be as follows: If you purchased $5 you will receive three, $10 will receive seven and $25 will receive ten tickets. We are sorry for the confusion and thank you for your participation. Tickets are still on sale and you on how to contacted through sexual contact, blood or other potentially infec tious fluids. As children enter ado lescence and move on to high school it is highly recommended they receive the three part Hepa titis B series of shots. Another subject is "Head Lice" outbreaks. Head lice are a common occurrence in schools. Many parents don't realize that a simple head check could prevent their child from infecting the whole class. Parents should check their childs head for knits or eggs. If head lice are found, seek treat ment and notify your child's teacher or school.
