There are two more weeks left to Fall term and we are looking forward to having a great Winter term. Please click on the Winter 23 Schedule link above to see a list of classes and descriptions. You will schedule during your regular advocate meeting times or please contact your case manager if you do not have an advocate at this time.
There is a clothing giveaway for families and 4j students at ECCO High School 200 North Monroe St Eugene, OR 97402 between 12:00pm-4:00pm on Saturday 12/10/22.
Our Thanksgiving gathering on Wednesday was a great success and it was great to see everyone helping out and spending time with friends. Connections staff hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving.
Below are some reminders about what happens when it’s icy or snowy outside:
In case of snow: Connections is part of the Eugene 4J school district. If 4J is open, Connections is open. If 4J is closed, Connections is closed. The 4J web site (www.4j.lane.edu ) will have the latest information on school closures. I will post a message on this website if we are delayed or closed for the day.
In case of a 2 hour delay: All morning classes are cancelled and 12 (noon) classes resume at Connections. We will have a regular schedule starting at 1 pm.
Sometimes Lane Community College will be closed and 4J will be open. In that case, Connections will be open. If you have classes or advocates that take place at LCC, please talk to your teacher about what to do if LCC is closed.
If you have any questions, you can always call Anders (541) 912-3618, or Jasmin at (541) 760-5590. If you choose to text, please leave your name and a phone number.
Please come to the Connections building at 2120 Bailey Hill Rd to eat, be thankful, have fun and socialize. All Connections classes are cancelled tomorrow (except for cooking) so we can prepare, eat and do fun activities. If you would like to help cook and set up, please come as early at 10:00am. You can arrive or leave when you want but we will have activities till 3:50pm.
