Hi Parents,VISION/HEARING SCREENING RESULTS
Many thanks to Elli Tathum and Christine Burnell for spending their whole day here screening our kids on Wednesday! Any kids that they felt should be followed up with have a referral in their hanging folder; if there's nothing in your child's folder, you should assume hearing and vision were within normal ranges. Some of the older kids have not had the hearing portion of the screening completed yet; Joe Mattern will be in to test them in the next two weeks.FRIDAY COFFEE
The Board would like to invite you to join them in the office on Friday mornings after drop-off for a cup of coffee, a muffin, and a chance to chat with other parents or ask the board any questions you might have. They'll be in the office waiting to say hi starting this Friday!NO SCHOOL MONDAY 1/21
