Health Update 10/20/2017:
- Scoliosis screenings will take place the first and second weeks in January. Please read the attached letter.
- Thank you to all those that have sent in recent copies of their children’s MD physicals and updated immunizations- I appreciate it. For those of you who haven’t been able to yet- if you could send them along as soon as possible, that would be great!
- When we receive a note from a doctor letting us know a child can not participate in gym class, we have to follow the doctor's orders. Therefore, a students cannot return to gym without updated orders that clear them for participation. Please make sure there is a start and end date, if possible, on doctor's orders.
Reminders from Mrs. O'Coin, School Secretary

- Please ensure your CORI has not expired. Contact Mrs. O’Coin if you are unsure of your expiration date. Mrs. O’Coin has current information regarding the CORI. We cannot rush CORI checks at the end of the year as systems are overloaded.
