6th Grade Camping Trip a Success!
As you know this trip would not be possible without the volunteerism of our teachers, Mrs. Holland, Ms. Curry, Mrs. Holly, and Mr. Grant. The students had an awesome time thanks to the leadership of our teachers- a true testament to their dedication and commitment to our students.
Open House begins at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 25
Parents have been notified that doors will be manned at 6:45 p.m. for security purposes. The first session will begin promptly at 7:00p.m. with the next one beginning at 7:30 p.m. Parents are aware that there are 2 repeat sessions in order to accommodate families with more than one child. I will make the announcement to ensure the beginning and end of each session. Special Education Teachers and Specials Teachers should be available throughout the evening.
Back to School Night Tips
While this is a teacher's blog and a bit informal...I thought some of her ideas may be helpful. And, while this isn't the first Open House for most of us, you never know if you pick up a new tips or two.
