Healthy Students Are Ready to Learn

Dear Parents and Guardians,

A headache, toothache, anxiety, or an ongoing health concern can make it difficult for a student to focus in the classroom. Our partnership with Choptank Community Health System helps enrolled students receive important health services conveniently during the school day. Choptank Health’s School-Based Health Centers provide medical, dental, behavioral health, and nutrition services for enrolled students. Depending on your child’s needs and the services available at our school, the care team can help with preventive care, minor illnesses, chronic health conditions, healthy eating, stress, emotional well- being, and more. October brings added attention to dental hygiene, nutrition, and mental health, but these needs matter throughout the school year. Early support can help students feel better, miss less class time, and remain ready to learn.

Has your child enrolled in School-Based Health?

Enrollment does not replace your child’s primary care provider. It gives your family another convenient way to access care and support during the school day.

Learn more and complete the registration forms at www.choptankhealth.org/school-based.

Thank you for helping us create a healthy, supported school community where every student has the opportunity to thrive.

Families can receive a 10% discount when they purchase tickets to all three shows in the same transaction. The offer ends November 6.

The Avalon is also providing free school-day bus-in performances for many grades this year, with support from the Sara B. Ryan Fund. Annie, the Avalon’s holiday production, is coming soon, too, and tickets will be on sale shortly.

The Avalon Children’s Theatre will also have children’s shows this spring. We’ll share more information as soon as it’s available.

We hope you and your family can join us for a show!
