The dental clinic will be April 11th during the school day. They accept whatever private insurance or Medicaid pays and will turn no student away due to inability to pay. All 6th and 9th graders have a mandatory dental exam due by May 15th. It is open to grades 6-12. Forms must be turned in by this Friday and if not enough interest the dental clinic will be cancelled. All students and parents were emailed a form last week and hard copies are available in both the JH and HS office.
Unfortunately, the Lady Buffs softball game at Arcola scheduled for tonight has been canceled.
