Volunteer for Parent Teacher Conferences Meal
Montclair Parents,
The PTO is organizing dinner for the teachers during conferences next week. We know the teachers greatly appreciate this so please consider bringing food and/or volunteering to set up or clean up after their meal.
The meal is on Tuesday but we would like most items being brought to the teacher’s lounge the day before on Monday, February 11, so that we can ensure everything is accounted for. Hot items will need to be brought in crock pots by 3:00 on the Tuesday, February 12.
