    • THE HEART OF A MENTOR (VIDEO) ▶️

      In education, no one succeeds alone. Every great teacher can point to someone who helped them along the way. For first-year teacher Ms. Torkiana Phillips, that person is Ms. Sandra Wilkerson.

    Headlines & Features

    • News from the clinic:

      Sometimes it is difficult to make the decision about whether or not your child is sick enough to stay home from school. With minor symptoms early in the morning, you cannot predict if he/she will feel better or worse during the course of the day. These guidelines can be of help when you’re trying to decide what’s best to do.
