TikTok Concerns
You may be aware, but there are a series of challenges being suggested on the social media platform, TikTok, that encourage dangerous and destructive/violent behavior to occur on campus each month of the school year. Many of these challenges have significant consequences, including legal action. Please take a moment to speak with your child about respectful and responsible behavior on campus.
Dental Screening
Lichen will be offering free dental screenings and fluoride varnish treatments by Early Smiles Sacramento (ESS) on Monday, October 25th at 9am. Students will also receive a free toothbrush, toothpaste, and a school supply pouch with pencils, a pencil sharpener, and eraser.
In order to participate, you must complete and return and Early Smiles Sacramento consent form. If you need a consent form in another language, please reach out to the front office as we have them in multiple languages.
