Dear Event Volunteers:

Congratulations on earning $1,003.85 towards Bernardo Yorba Entertainment Unit. On behalf of AES Electronics Recycling Inc., I would like to personally thank you for your recent contribution of time to the January 7, 2012 collection event at Bernardo Yorba Middle School. This event could not have been a success without the help of the many volunteers who donated their time.

Due to your incredible efforts the school collected vast quantities of e-waste which will greatly benefit the Bernardo Yorba Entertainment Unit. The collection of this considerable amount of e-waste was all possible due to the dedication and hard work of individuals like your event coordinator Lisa Doble, the students, parents and volunteers whom were a crucial part of the success of the our event. They all went above and beyond expectations to help the event run efficiently.

The uplifting spirit and willingness of the volunteers left us at awe. We are more than happy to collaborate with such great volunteers and coordinator to help benefit this wonderful cause. Satisfied with the outcome of the event, we would gladly participate in any future plans for additional events and hope you feel the same way.

Once again, AES Recycling Inc. thanks you for your efforts and we invite you to continue recycling e-waste to help create and maintain a greener place for all to live.

Sincerely,
Event Coordinator

Updated Dress Code Policy
2011 – 2012

For the past thirteen years, Bernardo Yorba Middle School has had a mandatory uniform dress policy. Over the years, more and more parents have chosen to exempt their children from the mandatory uniforms by signing a waiver, as is their right by education code. While we still see tremendous benefit in school uniforms and encourage parents to require their children to wear uniforms, it will become a voluntary uniform dress policy and parents will no longer be required to sign a waiver. Uniforms will still be available and it is our belief that many parents will choose to keep their children in uniform. With that, we have updated our dress code policy which will be strictly enforced. Please refer to the new dress code prior to shopping for school clothes.

VISION AND HEARING SCREENING

8^th GRADE

The State of California mandates vision and hearing screening for students in public school. The screening for your middle school will be conducted on Monday, February 6^th by nurses.  The exam consists of visual inspection of the eye, along with a test for acuity. Hearing testing consists of your child wearing headphones, where tones are presented, and your child will raise his/her hand. 

Parents will be notified by mail if their child’s vision or hearing screen shows a need for further medical evaluation. If you have any questions, call the Health Services Department at 714-986-7170 and speak with a district nurse.

Should you decide that you DO NOT wish to have your child participate in the above screening; a written note by a parent/guardian will be required to be on file. Please give the note to the school’s health clerk.

Thank you,

Health Services
