Attn: Parents of Gr 5 & 7 Girls, Gr 8 Boys

Each school year scoliosis screenings are conducted by the school nurse, with permission from a parent/guardian, for girls in grades 5 & 7 and boys in grade 8.

Yesterday Mrs. Pennington sent home the permission letters with students in these grades who have NOT already submitted an updated health physical form, showing a scoliosis screening was done within the past year.

If your child brought home a scoliosis screening letter, please complete the information – indicating whether or not you give permission for your student to be screened – and have your student return it to the school as soon as possible.

Please direct any questions to Mrs. Pennington at kpennington@mpspride.org, or 860.643.5088 option 4.

Tomorrow, Tuesday (3/11), our 6th grade boys JV basketball players and 4th – 6th grade girls JV basketball players (and their coaches) will celebrate the end of their season with a special luncheon during school hours.  Pizza will be provided so students will NOT need a lunch from home on Tuesday.

Please note, students on these 2 JV teams should wear their SJS basketball jersey to school on Tuesday (must have a shirt under it) along with their gym pants.  After Tuesday, please wash your player’s uniform and send it back to school in a baggie labeled with their name.
