Summer 2011
June 16th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
Hello friends of the Health Center. Hard to believe we’re facing the end of the school year this week. We made do with lots of changes this year. Highlights were our vibrant TAC students and Benefit committee that put on the 5th annual Hands for Health Benefit this past May, raising $26,000. Outstanding help from our community of supporters, making health care more accessible. We saw lots of children this year. See “who we saw” below.
As our 2010-2011 school year winds down, so does our health center. Our last day to see students will be Thursday, June 16, 2010. We will close for the summer and re-open when the new school year starts in the fall, 2011.
We hope everyone will enjoy the summer as a time to make friends, explore the world, read good books, and tend your gardens.
