WHAT DID WE DO IN JANUARY ❓

Alivio Medical Center: Nutrition Series Kicks Off

Alivio Medical Center officially launched their Nutrition Series this January!

  • January 21: Participants explored healthy food choices and proper portion sizes.

  • January 28: The focus was on reading nutrition labels—and many were surprised by just how much sugar is hidden in packaged foods.

📅 Next Session: February 4
Topic: Preventing Type 2 Diabetes
All are welcome! Please be sure to register if you haven’t already.


8th Grade Parent Information Sessions

On January 22, our 8th grade families attended Parent Information Sessions to learn more about the transition to Argo High School.
Both the 9:00 AM and 5:30 PM sessions were well attended, with great questions and lots of helpful information shared to support families during this important transition.


Mindful Movement Is Back!

Our Mindful Movement sessions returned on January 27 with full energy! We are thrilled to see how much our parents are enjoying the yoga sessions.
We’re also excited to share that our partnership with OptWell will continue—more movement and wellness to come!
