Happy Pi Day from York Middle/High School Math team - Mrs. Keiper, Mrs. Boyd, Mrs. Steele, Mrs. Buckley, and Miss Clark and their math students!
Today is every math teacher's dream day for Pi lessons. The students earned a "piece of the pie" for their efforts to do the math formula.
Avon Lions Club spent a morning at York Elementary School performing vision screenings on pre-k, kindergarten and first grade students. A total of 55 students received the vision screening; five were referred to their health care professional for further testing.
The program is called Lions SEE (Screen Eyes Early) and it screens young children for vision problems that can lead to Amblyopia, commonly referred to as
“lazy eye.”
Trained volunteers and Avon Lions Club members Tim McGee, George DeKramer, and Kevin Patrick performed the vision screenings. Parents were notified in advance and gave their permission.
The Lions Club has been committed to programs that protect eyesight, such as the SEE program and providing eyeglasses to the disadvantaged.
We appreciate the Avon Lions Club partnering with our school nurses Mrs. Kingsley and Mrs. Norman to provide this valuable screening.
