Year two in the Wellness Center has been all about reconnecting. It’s been a joy for Casey to see the many students from last year who’ve popped in to say hi and share the highlights from wonderful summers. It’s been an equal delight for Wellness Coordinator Allen Choi, who replaced the adored Ms.Eryn (who’s focusing on her private practice) to meet everyone. Year two is certain to be an incredible year of supporting student wellness. Our door is open, as are our hearts, for those who are struggling with loss or mental health concerns. We hope you’ll remind your kids that the Wellness Center is here for them!

Please make sure all forms are thoroughly completed and have both parent and valid MD signature. (Even for over-the-counter medications).

Even after turning in a request, students must continue to go to their assigned schedule until they have confirmation that the schedule has changed. August 26 is the last day to add a new class. If students have enough credits, classes can be dropped until the end of first quarter, but no new classes can be added.
Cyber High is starting tomorrow September 16.
Students who need to take a class for credit recovery need to talk to a counselor to get signed up. Cyber High is only for credit recovery in required courses…
