Mohegan Update 11/15
November 15, 2024
VETERANS DAY
Veterans Day was a wonderful success! Not only did we get to honor 13 Veterans in person on stage, but every classroom also had an opportunity to meet with the Veterans and hear about their experiences in the military. On a personal note, I want to thank all the students for their cards and posters. It was very touching reading them all.
PJ DAY MONDAY
On Monday, we are doing a fundraiser for the Feeding Families Foundation. A flier is attached. For $1, students may wear PJs to school.

PRE-K NEWS
As a reminder, Connecticut immunization regulations require students ages 24-59 months attending Pre-K to receive at least one dose of the Flu vaccine between August 1st and December 31st. If this is the first time your child is ever receiving the Flu vaccine, two doses administered at least 28 days apart is required by the Connecticut immunization regulations. Please call your Pediatrician to schedule an appointment as soon as possible to prevent any delays or vaccine shortages! If you have any questions, please contact Nurse Cristina.
