ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL
LIFETIME WELLNESS
Dear Parents and/or Guardians,
I would like to welcome you and your child to a new and exciting year at Arlington High School. As you probably already know, the opportunity for your child to succeed can only be improved with us working together. There are several ways we can communicate throughout the year to try and keep you informed on your child’s progress (e-mails, phone calls, power school, progress reports). Feel free to contact me anytime if you would like to get an update on your child either in the classroom or in the gym. The dates that we are in the gym / classroom can be found on my school webpage under ‘switch dates’. Thanks again for taking time to read and sign all appropriate sheets.
I have read and support all attached information regarding Lifetime Wellness class.
