National Assistant Principals Week
On April 4, Boone Middle School’s 7th grade students went on a field trip to participate in the Teen Maze at the Boone County Fairgrounds! This interactive experience helped students understand and learn decision-making strategies for situations they may face in the future. Topics included saying no to drugs and alcohol, dealing with peer pressure, recognizing the differences between positive and negative relationships, babysitting, and even interviewing for a job. We would like to thank Ryan Titman and Scott Kelley, along with many other members of Boone and Story counties, for continuing this awesome opportunity for kids!

Save the Date! In May, we will hold Preschool & Kindergarten Experience Days to allow students to get a glimpse into what their day will look like next school year. Students will have the opportunity to meet staff and their future classmates! Both experience days will be held at Page Elementary. Our TK/Kindergarten Experience Day will be held on Friday, May 5 from 8:30 to 11am. This event will allow your TK or kindergarten student to practice being in TK or Kinder! Fun activities and learning will help children hold this memory all summer long when they think about school. Our Preschool Experience Day will be held on Wednesday, May 10. The day will be split into four, one-hour visits to allow children to get to know staff and each other more closely! Letters with assigned times will be sent during the first week of April. Students and families are invited to join us to learn more about our new Ledges Elementary School, our programming, and our staff. We look forward to meeting you!

Friendly reminders from the Ledges Elementary School Nurse! First, please call your child’s primary care provider to schedule their yearly well-child exam and update immunizations prior to your child starting school! Preschoolers: ➡️ Certificate of Immunizations must be received prior to the first day of school (form printed by medical provider). ➡️ All incoming preschoolers must have a current physical. Physicals within 1 year from the start date of school this fall are classified as current. Physicals must be kept current throughout the school year. Physicals are no longer current when 1 year has passed from the previous physical and must be updated within 30 days of expiring. This can be mailed or faxed to your child’s elementary school. Kindergartners: ➡️ Certificate of Immunizations must be received prior to the first day of school (form printed by medical provider). ➡️ Copy of your child’s most recent physical including lead testing results. ➡️ Dental Screening Form: https://tinyurl.com/yc5zmbyx ➡️ Student Vision Card: https://tinyurl.com/4rykat2k Both dental and vision forms are available at your dentist and doctor’s offices, as well. 1st Grade: ➡️ NO required items if your child is a returning student. ➡️ New students are required to provide a Certificate of Immunization prior to the first day of school (form printed by medical provider) and a copy of your child’s most recent physical. *Please note: If your child has an environmental/food allergy, will need medication administered while at school, or requires a special diet, those forms can be found on the Boone Community School District website: https://www.boonecsd.org/ Please notify the school nurse prior to your child attending school if they have a health condition that will require assistance. Thank you, and we look forward to welcoming students to Ledges Elementary this fall!
