Student Information

Fall Parties in the classrooms are Friday, Nov. 2, beginning at 3:00.  (Fifth grade and Mrs. Parks’ second grade will have their parties before their Expressive Arts classes.)  As for your room parents, each team got a complete listing of all the volunteers who signed up at Open House for various jobs.  You'll each want to connect with those people and outline what you want (as a class or a grade for consistency) for them to do/provide for the party on Nov. 2.
