Dear Parents and Families,

Also, we are in the planning stages of Eagle Academy. This is our schoolwide EOG test prep. We are looking for a few parent volunteers to help with groups from 2:55-3:40 on Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning March 29. If you are interested in helping, please complete this interest form.
