A note from Principal Mate
Park View Families,
This week students will be bringing home MAP winter test results on Friday. Please make sure you ask your students for these. If you have any questions about these reports, please reach out to your student's classroom teacher.
Below you will find a link to the Illinois 5 Essentials survey. Parent input is very important to Park View. The survey only takes a few minutes. It provides us with wonderful feedback from our parents.
Thank you to all the parents who attended our PTC meeting on Thursday. We have a lot of events coming up. The biggest PTC event coming up is Parent's Night Out. This fundraiser only happens every other year. This is the fundraising event that helps fund future PTC events for students. It is also a great way to get to know other Park View families. Information and flyer is below. We hope that you can attend and support the PTC.
If you need anything at any time, please let me know. Have a happy, safe and fun 3 day weekend!
