Dear Families,

Did you know Longfellow Elementary School has a primary care medical clinic right inside the front doors? The Longfellow Family Clinic is expanding its service area and is now open to students and families from:

📍 Jackson Elementary School

📍 Wilson Elementary School

📍 Farnsworth Elementary School

📍 South High School

The Longfellow Family Clinic is offered in partnership with Lakeshore Community Health Care. It offers services like immunizations, wellness exams, and annual physicals, as well as acute care for sore throats, earaches, pink eye, the common cold, and more.

✅ Primary medical care for students and anyone living in their household

✅ Open Monday–Friday, 7:30 am–4:30 pm during the school year

✅ Care for all, no matter insurance status or income

We’re proud to offer community-based resources like this to help support the health and well-being of our students and their families. By working together, we can ensure that every child has the care they need to learn and thrive.

Registration forms are available in your school office or can be completed online. Learn more on the Lakeshore Community Health Care’s website at lakeshorechc.org/longfellow or call the Clinic at (920) 459-6715 to make an appointment.

1 in 4 school-aged children has a vision problem, and it is not always easy to detect. Sometimes children have trouble seeing and don't even realize they are seeing the world differently than others. Healthy vision is important for learning and success in school. For most children, 80% of learning happens visually. Vision problems can make it hard for children to read and learn, and unfortunately, many fall behind in school or show behavioral problems. To make sure your child is vision ready for success in school, we have scheduled a vision screening for students in 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade. If your child wears glasses, please make sure they bring them to school on this day.

If your child does not pass the screening, we will send a letter home asking that you schedule a complete eye exam for your child. If no concerns are detected, you will not receive a letter. If you have any questions or concerns about the vision screening, please contact your school nurse.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Please call the school office at 920.459.3573 before 8:30am if your child/ren will be absent. For pre-planned absences that will last longer than 2 days, please fill out a planned absence form. As a friendly reminder, state law permits students to be excused from school for a maximum of 10 days per school year.
