Nurse News
Below is a link and friendly reminder about our clinic guidelines on when to keep your child home if they are ill. We have students with compromised immune systems on our campus. It is imperative for the health and well being of our students to report all contagious illnesses to your student's teacher/nurse and to follow our clinic guidelines. Please help stress the importance of hand washing! Thank you for helping ALL of our student's stay healthy! Click here for more information.
Discovery Program Referral Process
The Discovery Program, otherwise known as Gifted and Talented, is now accepting parent referrals for GT Screening via a google form on the school website!
Current Serene Hills parents can submit referrals for screening until the end of the first 9 weeks, by the date of Oct 10th. Current SHE students will be tested during the 2nd nine weeks, usually in November. If the referral is not submitted by the deadline, the student will have to wait until the next year's screening opportunity to test, as the spring screening session is only for students moving in new to the district after the fall testing window is closed.
The forms and further information about the program can be found at the following link.
LTISD District GT Information and Referral Forms. Once the request is submitted through the google form, the GT coordinator will contact parents via email when the testing dates are set and share other pertinent information as well.
