The Steilacoom Lions Club - with help from Watch D.O.G.S. - assisted Nurse Emily in Hearing and Vision testing for our Cherrydale students this week.
Thank you to all of our volunteers who help to keep our Cherrydale Cheetahs healthy and happy!

From Nurse Emily
Although each child should have an extra set of clothes in their backpack, there are still cases when clothes are needed in the health room, especially elastic waistband pants and leggings. If you have any to donate that your kids have outgrown, they would be appreciated.
