Vision 21 for 3rd Grade
Identification of 3rd grade students:

We have implemented our new process for identifying 3rd grade students who will be receiving direct Vision 21 services. We still need to complete identification on those students new this fall to our district, but the identification of all other 3rd grade students is complete. Letters were sent out the week of November 5th, to the families of those students who will be receiving services.
 
The process used for identification can be found on the district Vision 21 website.
Winter Gear Drive

With cold temperatures right around the corner, many less fortunate families in our area are in great need of winter gear. The Birchview PTA will be starting our annual Winter Gear Drive next month. So get ready to clean out your closets and bring in your donations!

 

From October 15 - November 16th, we will be collecting winter gear items including:

(all sizes from infant to adult)

 

All donated items need to be washed, cleaned and in wearable condition. Donation box will be available outside of the main office. All items will be donated to
