Plano_RDSPD The Talk

News from the Plano Regional Day School Program for the Deaf
What a Busy Start to the School Year!
It's hard to believe that the 2018 - 2019 school year has begun and that we have been in school over three weeks. The staff and students have been hard at work. There is excitement for a great year to come
We hope to see you at our various events throughout the year. The Spring Show has been scheduled and will happen on Saturday, May 11. Due to the success of our Second Annual 5K and Fun Run, we will be offering numerous events for students and families this year. Please let us know if you have ideas that will help your child and your family. Students will be participating in Battle of the Books, Math Competition, Academic Bowl, and Imagination Texas. We are working on dates and planning the next 5K, Family Information Night and Student Fun Fair, campus activities, field trips, play dates, and more.
I hope our newsletter gives you helpful information. It will be published on the first Monday of each month. Past and present versions of The Talk can be found on our new parent Google Site at https://sites.google.com/pisd.edu/planordspdparent/home. Let us know what you need and any ideas you have for the newsletter.
