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.
