Weekly Update July 12, 2024
Strive Center for Autism
CALENDAR UPDATE
We will be moving our previously scheduled Professional Development day from October 11 to October 18. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please update your calendars.
Welcome back Jesscia!
Please take a minute to say hello to Jessica when you see her in Burton! She is back from her maternity leave and in the office Monday - Thursday. She is so happy to see all of you again.
Our Growing Team
We are seeking another BCBA to join our growing team! Right now, Amy will continue working alongside Jessica in Burton to ensure that the children get all the care they need. We have posted the job for a BCBA and will update families when we've found the right person. This will allow us to have two full time BCBAs in each building all the time.
Keep wearing those tennis shoes!
Just a friendly reminder as it gets warmer – PLEASE send your child in closed-toe shoes to therapy.
Sandals of any type and crocs are not allowed.
We'd love to see your child’s adorable toes, but we need to protect them from our own feet, our rolling stools, and any other hazards, so please send your child wearing socks and closed toe shoes every day.
Next Fun Friday is Water Day!
Our next Fun Friday, July 19th, is Water Day! We will play outside with every fun water item we have - splash pad, sprinkler, water table, water balloons, and all the containers you can scoop and pour with!
Kids may bring bathing suits to change into or just an extra change of clothes. Everyone can bring sandals, crocs, or water shoes to change into as well, but please wear socks and tennis shoes in the morning. Please send a towel with your child.
Fun Fridays Schedule
Each Friday in the summer, we plan for an extra fun activity and a dress up day. All the dress up days are designed to be simple ones you can do with things you have at home, please don’t feel obligated to buy anything to make these happen. Staff and children will both participate in dressing up! Dress up days are listed below so you can plan.
We will provide the children with Strive shirts to wear on School Spirit Days. The shirts have been ordered and should arrive next week. We will send them home as soon as we get them!
