At the screening, your child will go with different staff members to be screened for abilities, skills, and speech. Parents will complete additional paperwork while waiting. If you have questions, call 217-662-6981.
Mrs. Fourez's class did a directed draw for Earth day! She decided to make it a contest for the best drawing. The whole class got to vote on their favorite and she also posted it on social media for people to vote. She received over 100 votes and was able to pick 5 winners!
Congrats Ethan, Lennon, Willow, Brody, and Zaylen!
