Brendan P: Congratulations on your Graduation!
As we approach the end of another academic year, all of us at Sargent Center want to take this opportunity to recognize Brendan P., an amazing student who will be graduating in June.
When he first arrived at Sargent Center, Brendan was initially quiet and shy. But in his time here, he has grown into a thoughtful and considerate young man.
Brendan loves sharing stories about his transformers, creating screenplays, and acting. After graduation, he plans to follow in his father's footsteps by pursuing work as a barber.
As Brendan carries on to this exciting new chapter of his life, we have no doubt that he will continue to grow, thrive, and have a positive impact on all of those around him. Congratulations Brendan!

Since many of the students will be gardening outdoors soon, we want to make sure that they are protected from possible exposure to tick bites. You may send in your own products if you wish. We will be using Avon Skin-So-Soft with Picardin Insect Repellent Spray. It is also advisable to send in some old pants, shirts, and socks to wear when they are digging in the garden. This will keep them cleaner for the ride home as well as protect their legs and feet from tick bites.
Please sign and return the permission slip for Insect Repellent.

Please send in sunscreen, sunglasses, towels, swimwear, and hats for your child’s protection. Also, please let us know if your child is particularly sensitive to the sun or on any medication that causes photosensitivity. | |
