Be Seen and Be Heard
Please see the letter from Dr. Paula Couglin (Assistant Superintendent of Special Education) regarding our upcoming assembly on Erin's Law, or House Bill 6193. State law requires public schools to provide education on personal safety, abuse education, and prevention.
On Wednesday, January 16th, Glen Oaks School will be hosting the assembly for our students during school hours. The assembly, presented by Victor Pacini, is entitled "Be Seen and Heard." Mr. Pacini has presented to our students in the past and we are excited to welcome him back to Glen Oaks School!
For more information, please watch the video below.
Frosty Five
Additionally, if there is snow on the ground, our Panthers CAN play in the snow. However, they will NOT be allowed to play in the snow unless they have the "Frosty Five."
The "Frosty 5" include:
- Hat or hood
- Gloves or mittens
- Snow pants
- Boots
- Winter coat
