It is a day of remembrance which recognizes the atrocities and multigenerational impacts of residential boarding schools. We wear orange to remember the children who were lost, to honor the survivors and their families, and to show commitment to the phrase, Txa’nii k’abatgüüłga łikłut’iksit (Every Child Matters).
The tradition of wearing orange on September 30th was started by Phyllis Webstad, a survivor of a residential boarding school. You can read about her story here: https://orangeshirtday.org/phyllis-story/#story.

AISD Families:
During the month of October, Nurse Hudson will be conducting health screenings for ALL AISD Students, PreK - 12th grade!
She will be screening hearing, vision, height, and weight.
-We have a state of the art vision screening machine that detects a variety of vision issues. If students do not pass the screening, we will send results to parents to be referred for further care.
-Remember, screening tests only alert us to a possible hearing or vision problems. We can assist you in getting a referral to a vision or hearing specialist if needed.
If you do NOT wish for your child to receive a health screening, please let their school office or Nurse Hudson know.
If you have questions or concerns about your child with regard to these screenings, please contact Nurse Hudson for more information:
