Here’s a friendly reminder that Friday is early release. Students are released at 1:45 PM.

Health Screening- Friday, October 28th

*Dental screening offered for all students*

*Vision screening offered for K through 3rd*

Our vision screening this year will be Friday October 28th during the school day for kindergarten through third grade. This vision screening will be done by a “Spot Test” with the Lions Sight and Hearing Foundation volunteers and does NOT take the place of a thorough eye examination by an eye health specialist, as serious or eye health problems can be missed. If the results of the vision screening indicate your student needs a thorough eye exam, you will be notified of results after we receive them, generally 2-4 weeks after the screening date. The volunteers are required to be vaccinated against Covid-19.

Our dental screening is offered for all students.  Students of Parents and Guardians who chose to return the Authorization for Dental hygiene Services can receive a fluoride varnish treatment, which helps prevent cavities. These services are provided by the Community Health Centers of Lane County dental hygiene providers.

Please let us know if you do not wish your child to participate.

Breve Reviso de Salud Viernes el 28 de Octubre, 2022

*Se ofrece reviso dental para todos los alumnos*

*Se ofrece reviso de la vista paral los alumnus de kinder hasta el tercer grado*

 Viernes el 28 de Octubre tendremos una prueba breve de la vista durante el día escolar para estudiantes de kínder hasta el tercer grado.  Este chequeo se hace por una maquina llamado “Spot” por los voluntarios de una agencia comunitaria llamado el Club de Los Leones y NO reemplaza la atención médica para la vista que se debe hacer con regularidad.  Es posible que no se detecte graves problemas de la vista en este chequeo de la vista.  Si los resultados del chequeo de la vista indican que su estudiante necesita un examen de la vista completo, les notificaremos de los resultados cuando los recibimos, generalmente dentro de 2-4 semanas.  Se requieren que los voluntarios están vacunados contra Covid-19.

El chequeo dental se ofrece para todos los alumnos de kínder hasta el quinto grado.  Alumnos de los padres y tutores que escogieron volver el permiso para servicios dentales se pueden recibir un tratamiento de fluoruro, que ayuda a prevenir los caris.  Estos servicios se provean por los Centros de Salud Comunitario del condado de Lane.

Volunteer at Yujin Gakuen

Many of our parents asked what steps they need to take to volunteer at school. Please see the links below or visit the 4J webpage “Volunteer in the Eugene District 4J.”

As a parent or guardian, you may wonder how you can get involved in your child’s education. One great way to do this is by volunteering in the Eugene District 4J schools. Volunteering offers many benefits for both you and your child. It’s a great way to meet other parents and get to know the teachers and staff at your child’s school. It can also be a fun and rewarding way to spend some time with your child.

If you’re interested in volunteering, there are a few things you need to do. First, you’ll need to complete a background check. You can find more information about this on the 4J website. You’ll also need to complete a mandatory training session. Once you’ve done these things, you’ll be ready to start volunteering.

So why not give it a try? Volunteering is a great. See the links below to get started or visit “Volunteer in the Eugene District 4J.”
