Camelot Weekly Drawbridge
November 1, 2024
Dear Camelot Scholars and Families,
We are looking forward to focusing on Gratitude this month! One way to think about Gratitude is "choosing to appreciate the people and things in our lives." Practicing Gratitude can increase our well-being and even our happiness.
Gratitude is 1 of 3 traits we will be focused on throughout the year that helps students Be Well. Across grade levels, students will be developing skills like emotion regulation, positive self-talk, and stress management.
Conversation Starters:
- Can you share or show what it means to practice gratitude?
- What is something you are grateful for every day?
Warmly,
Brooke Perry

Vision and Hearing Screening
Dear Parents and Guardians:
Vision and hearing screening with be taking place during the school day November 18, 2024.
The Federal Way Nurses will be using a handheld Photo-Screener device when screening large groups. The new photo-screener will allow for more accurate and complete screening including the following:
· Hyperopia (farsightedness)
· Myopia (nearsightedness)
· Astigmatism (blurred vision)
· Anisometropia (unequal refractive power)
· Anisocoria (unequal pupil size)
· Strabismus (Eye misalignment)
This is a screening only. You will receive a notice for referral to a vision specialist if the screening results note any vision discrepancies. Please send your student with their glasses if they are prescribed them.
If you have questions, please contact your school nurse. Vision screening for any student will be completed when requested by parent/guardian.
Thank you,
Alicia Jacobs
