New Parent Information Night / Back to School Night are TONIGHT!
We’re excited to interact with our parents tonight! Tip: Parking is limited on our school site; please consider parking next door at Margaret Azevedo Park - there is a paved path from the park to our school.
Parent Information Night will be a brief 20 minute presentation starting at 6:00p that will include speakers from our Board, PTA, Garden, After School Clubs, Mr. B and more. There will be a few minutes for parents to network and meet the various school groups before the start of Back to School Night (‘BSN’). Our teachers will be hosting BSN within each of our classrooms, and it’ll begin at 6:30p. We recognize that families have children in multiple classrooms - please feel free to go between rooms during the presentations and pick up each classrooms’ BSN materials.
