Changes to School Schedule

Superintendent Wayne Sweeney and the Board of Education have made changes to the 2011-2012 school calendar to accommodate the school days missed due to the storm.
Here are the changes being made:
  • Wednesday, November 30, 2011 - will be a FULL day of school rather than a half day as originally scheduled
  • Tuesday, January 17, 2012 - will be a HALF day early release instead of no school.
  • Wednesday, February 8, 2012 - will be a FULL day of school rather than a half day as originally scheduled.
  • February Vacation - school will be closed Monday, February 20 & Tuesday, February 21 ONLY. School will be in session February 22, 23 & 24.
This revised schedule makes up five of the 6 days missed already this school year (1 day from Hurricane Irene and 5 days from Storm Alfred) and winter has yet to even begin.
Let's hope the rest of the school year, weather-wise, is uneventful!!

Dental Care Being Offered for Windsor Locks Public School Students

I have received e-mails asking about the history of this program.  Former State Representative Karen Jarmoc of Enfield worked very hard to get this program in Enfield.  This program will not cost the Town of Windsor Locks a single dime, and it will keep our kids healthy.  May residents of Windsor Locks are unemployed or without health insurance, and this is a great opportunity for our children to have healthy teeth.  

Community Health Center, Inc. of Enfield is offering School Based Dental services to Windsor Locks Public School students during their school day.  The services consist of a cleaning, exam, fluoride treatment, sealants and dental x-rays if needed.  Proper brushing and flossing techniques are also reviewed.

All children who enroll are eligible to receive services regardless of insurance status.

There is no charge for services for children insured by Husky or Medicaid.  Most insurance plans are accepted with coverage & costs dependent on the plan.  For patients with NO dental insurance, the cost for the services is $30, and the cost for sealants is $25.00.  All parts of the registration/enrollment form* must be completed, signed and returned to the school before a student may receive the dental services.
