Smiles are Everywhere Mobile Dental Program

A Great Lakes Bay Health Center representative discussed the Mobile Dental Program "Dental Bus" with students. Slips are coming home today; some may have gone home yesterday. Please sign them and indicate if you want your child to receive treatment. Even if no treatment is required, please sign and return the slips.

The mobile dental bus will be at Adams February 24 - 26.

Permission slips are due to classroom teachers or the office by February 7.

What's on the Menu?

Reporting Absences - A Reason is Needed

Parents/Guardians can report student(s) absent via ParentVUE. This feature appears as a blue "Report Absences" button on the app's main page or website.

For each absence reported, parents/guardians must provide a reason. If you report your student as sick, please list the symptoms your student is experiencing. The note will help school attendance staff select the correct attendance code. If no reason is provided the absence will not be excused.

Parents/Guardians can report absences for a single day or multiple days.

Report each student individually. Do not enter additional students in the notes section.

If you have a legal or medical document, please upload it with the absence or provide it to the school attendance staff upon your student's return. Parents/guardians can still call to report an absence at 989-923-6037.

Lost and Found

Please label your child's belongings to help us return them promptly to their owners. Any unclaimed items will be donated at the end of each semester. We encourage students to check the lost and found regularly, as we have accumulated many misplaced items, including jackets, water bottles, lunch boxes, and other personal belongings.
