Phalen Flyer
PLA@George H. Fisher School 93
Greetings PLA Families,
What an amazing year we have had at PLA93. This is our last Phalen Flyer for the 22-23 school year. I'd like to thank all of our families for sharing your children with us over the course of this year. They are pretty amazing kids! I hope everyone has a safe and fun summer. We are looking forward to seeing everyone return for the 23-24 school year. Our first day of school is Thursday, August 17th.
You can expect to receive the next Phalen Flyer the first week of August. There will be information about the coming school year.
As a reminder, the last day of school is on Tuesday, June 6th. We will be dismissing at 11:20am.
We are planning to have a back-to-school ice cream social on Tuesday, August 15 from 5:00-7:00pm. Families will have the opportunity to visit inside the school and meet the teachers and staff prior to the first day. We hope to see you there.
We are currently enrolling kindergarten scholars for the 2023-2024 school year. More information can be found below.
PLA93's 2023-2024 school calendar has been made available to you at the bottom of the flyer.
The window for parent input on school ESSER funds has re-opened and available for you to complete a survey. If you previously completed an ESSER survey, it is not necessary for you to do again. The window will remain open until June 24th.
Have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Mr. Hendricks
Principal-PLA@93
