Wellness Screener: Opt-Out Form
In an effort to be more proactive in supporting students’ mental health, a wellness screener will be given to all students at Da Vinci Connect HS next week. Results from the screener will be used by the counselors to create interventions such as coping skills strategies, counselor check ins, and referrals for therapy.
Scores will not be shared with students or parents. Parents will be notified and parent consent is required if a student is referred and receives counseling services delivered by Antioch or Pepperdine therapists. If you would like your child to OPT-OUT and not take the screener, please fill out this FORM by Sunday, November 8, 2020.

Headset distribution this Saturday Nov. 7
Greetings Parents/Guardians:
For those of you who were unable to stop by last week to pick up a headset with microphone for your student(s), we will be having another distribution take place this weekend at 201 N. Douglas St. campus on Saturday, November 7th from 9:00am to 1:00pm. No RSVP is necessary.
To best expedite this process, please bring a letter-sized paper with the following information clearly written on it: Student(s)’ school(s), Student(s)’ grade level, and Student(s)’ last and first name. The student or parent/guardian will be asked to display that paper to the Da Vinci staff member distributing the headsets to facilitate the distribution. The headsets will be distributed under a canopy which will be set-up in Lane 1 of the parking lot, the lane closest to the gym.
Additional dates and times will be scheduled in the weeks to come in an effort to continue to provide opportunities for pickup as needed. Please feel free to contact the school’s front office if you have any questions about this. Thank you!

Regardless of the results, we will continue to do our best to create safe spaces for our community to gather, learn, and thrive. We are honored to do this hard work of raising good humans with all of you.
