Enjoy some photos of our bigs and littles! ❤️🖤

Scanlan Center for School Mental Health Clinic
We are excited to announce that our clinic has expanded access to its services. While school staff can continue to make referrals for students ages 10 and up, parents can also now directly request short-term individual counseling and child psychiatry services for their children. Families can choose between virtual care or in-person visits at the Iowa City clinic.
For students to receive virtual counseling during school hours, referrals must still come through school mental health professionals, administrators, or AEA staff. K-12 school staff in Iowa can self-refer for individual or group counseling. Please share this expanded option with your school community's families. Email scsmh-clinic@uiowa.edu with questions.

Please read below and consider supporting our CCSD student, Riley!
Riley Olmstead is a 2nd grader at Bluff Elementary. In July of 2022, Riley was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma. He underwent surgery in Iowa City and then continued treatment at St. Jude in Tennessee. Unfortunately, Riley relapsed in March of 2024, which required another brain surgery. He is continuing treatment at St. Jude at this time. The Bluff PTA would like to cheer Riley and his parents, Tracy and Jason, on by selling these 'Team Riley' shirts. Purple is Riley's favorite color!
Please click on the link below to order a shirt to show Riley and his family that we are behind them and supporting them. All proceeds from the shirt sales will go to Riley and his parents. You have until January 20th to order! Thank you for your support!

iJAG recently shared this message:
"This service project is one that keeps on giving! This holiday, students at Clinton Community School District volunteer at their local Hy-Vee for a food hunger drive. In just an hour, they helped raise nearly $2,000 for local families in need!
At iJAG, we believe continued civic service helps uplift our communities and influences the next generation of leaders."
Way to go, #CCSDStudents!
