The Slate Valley Universal Preschool Program will be conducting developmental screenings for children 0-5 years of age on Thursday March 31st at Benson Village School.
Screening involves activities that are both fun for young children and help us learn about a child’s motor, cognitive, and language skills. Vision and hearing will also be screened. We encourage any child aged 0-5 years that resides in Benson, Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton, Orwell and West Haven who has not previously been screened to be screened.
If you plan to attend this screening, please call Benson Village School for an appointment.

We upgraded our marble roller coasters today to see what would happen when hills and valleys were added. Both marbles were able to make it into the goal when they started on the hills. If a marble started in the valley, it didn’t receive enough energy to make it up the hill to finish the ride.
