He has been an inspirational force throughout the School District since his arrival a year ago last August.
Mr. LaRose’s support of the Health Center has brought an increased awareness of the facility and its services.

Tours of the Health Center will be offered and refreshments will be served.

Physicals, immunizations, care for ongoing illnesses and conditions, mental health support for depression, anxiety, family or partner violence, and eating disorders are among the services provided by the staff at the Health Center.
