Robinson Families,

A number of years ago, we requested game donations. Our students love what you donated - especially the card games - and we are hoping to add to our offerings.

Do you have any gently used card games around your home that you are willing to donate to the library? If so, please send the games to school with your student at any point during the month of November. Thank you for the support!

Best,

Robinson’s Librarians

Hearing & Vision Screening

Vision and hearing screening will be held on November 13th and 14th for all 10th grade students. The purpose of screening is to identify students who need further evaluation due to difficulty seeing the screening chart or hearing the screening tones. If your child wears glasses, please be sure that contacts/glasses are at school on screening day. Parents will be notified by letter if screening results indicate that further evaluation is needed. Prompt follow-up with your health care provider is recommended as vision and hearing difficulties can interfere with learning.
