Clear Lake Blog

Hello All,

First BIG information is that this Thursday’s PTO meeting has been postponed to next week- Thursday the 26th at 6:45pm. The reason has to do with the next piece- free tickets for the U of O men’s basketball has many CL families headed to the game…

Little Ducklings At Clear Lake
Thanks to a program at the University of Oregon, we have had the good furtune of receiving over 500 free basketball tickets in the last few weeks. We typically don’t have a long notice before games. Once we hear, we move fast- asking teachers to draw winners from their class container of positive reward slips. Those winners take a permission slip home that must come back the next day. If families cannot go, we want to know so we can quickly call “backup” winners from the drawings. Tickets are at the arena WILL CALL window waiting for the family to pick them up.

It works great and we hope to keep receiving those tickets and enjoy being “Little Ducklings.”

Exclusion Day Will Be Here Soon  (From the Bethel Nursing Staff)
Dear Families,
Please be aware, students can be excluded from school if their immunizations are not up to date by February 15, 2012.  Please ensure your child is not excluded from school by making sure they are up to date on their immunizations.  Records are currently being reviewed by school Health Assistants and families are being notified by phone and/or mail if records indicate your child needs immunizations.   Families with Oregon Health Plan, Private insurance with unaffordable co-pays or deductibles for immunizations, and without health insurance can utilize the Bethel Student Health Center, located at Cascade MS, 1525 Echo Hollow Road for immunizations.  For an appointment, call  541-607-1430.  Please don’t hesitate to call your school if you have any questions regarding immunizations and exclusion day.

Newsletter To Go Electronic
“Bear Facts,” the CL newsletter, will go electronic after the February edition is printed. In an effort to save paper and money, we will print a very limited number of newsletters for families who do not have internet access. Otherwise, you can see the newsletter through a link on the CL website. Please call the office if you want a printed copy and we’ll arrange to get one to you each month.

That’s it for now- thanks for reading,
John
