Student Voice:
When I first came to Hutchings I was questioning if I would like the change. But now that I've been here for a whole year, I've learned that it is a great school. One of the awesome qualities of this school is how great the teachers are. I've never had such great teachers at any school that I have been to. The teachers are always there to care for you and help you solve anything. The cafeteria also has delicious food. It is truly a phenomenal school. - 5th Grade Student
I love the teachers at Hutchings! I love how we can be back together from Covid- 19 and how we can learn all together. I think school is fun. I like being able to run around the playground with all my friends from other classes. I look forward to coming to Hutchings everyday! - 3rd Grade Student

COVID-19 Vaccination Information From LCHD
With the recent FDA authorization and CDC recommendation of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination for children ages 5-11, the Livingston County Health Department (LCHD) is now scheduling vaccination appointments for this age group. In addition to the LCHD’s clinics, several local pharmacies and pediatricians are also offering the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination. While the COVID-19 vaccination is not required to attend school, once a student is fully vaccinated, they are exempt from quarantine.
