A Message from Proud Principal, Laura Clark
We've had a busy week here at Parsons! Thank you to everyone who attended Curriculum Night. This night was filled with collaboration between home and school which supports our students' success. As a busy mom I know how difficult it is to juggle life events. If you were unable to attend, please check your child's eClass page. Teachers will be sharing their slide show for you to view.
Let's hear it for all the dads and special visitors who attended ALL Pro Dads this morning. We had a packed house. The message was powerful. It focused on the most important thing we can give our kids- OUR TIME! Our school community is filled with parents who value time supporting their child's education. This is one reason why our school is so GREAT!
Enjoy your weekend and take TIME to have fun and rejuvenate before we take on another busy week!
Proud Principal,
Mrs. Clark
