Flu clinic this week!

Hellstern's flu shot clinic will be on Friday, October 9th. If you have a student that is only coming on Tuesday & Thursday, you may bring him/her to school at 8am Friday morning and we will administer those first (parents should stay and wait in the car). Forms for the flu clinic went home this past week. If your child did not bring it home, contact Nurse Amy at 750-8725.
