MANDATORY PARENT MEETINGS
Each year we ask all parents to make plans to attend a parent meeting in the first few weeks of school. The meetings are for parents only, so we ask that arrangements be made for your children. Both parents are encouraged to attend but it is mandatory for at least one parent to attend. If you must miss the meeting, you should let your child's teacher know in advance by filling out the "Missed Meeting" form located on the Parent Portal. The teacher passes those forms on to the administrative office. Important information for parents is shared during this meeting.
All meetings will begin at 6:30 in the Chapel. Parents will be dismissed to their child's homeroom at the end of this session for an informative meeting with the teacher.

Registration
Don't forget to complete your child's registration! You should have received a Phase 1 and Phase 2 email around July 29th. Phase 1 contained a link to our back to school registration page on the Parent Portal with important documentation to read. Phase 2 had a link to our primary registration form which we have also included here for your convenience. This must be completed for each student so if you have not done so already, please complete the registration form as soon as possible.
