Heilicher 6th Grade Wolf Ridge Trip Day 2

Just like too many sweets, too much screen time can wreak havoc with kids. How do we maintain a healthy balance when digital media is increasingly embedded in our children’s lives?

At Heilicher, we have a new offering to help prepare students to navigate the digital world: the Digital Citizenship Program.

The principle of sh’mirat haguf (safeguarding the body) underscores the importance of holistic care for both the mind and the body. The progression of the role and responsibilities of school nurses, especially here at Heilicher, exemplifies our collective commitment to promoting comprehensive well-being. It aligns with the concept of sh’mirat haguf by ensuring our educational practices encompass the nurturing of both mental and physical health.

Transitioning from the past, when a visit to the school nurse often entailed receiving minor first aid or a call home, the scope of the school nurse’s role has significantly broadened.

Families who don’t have kids enrolled at Heilicher really are missing out!

While the new year is only a few weeks old, classes for the fall of 2024 are already filling up. What is driving this demand for Heilicher?
