A note from Mrs. Lato
I am so excited about all of the amazing opportunities our students have had this year and am busy planning and finalizing all of the details for next year.
I wanted to let you know that my official last day at East before I begin my maternity leave is May 24th. Mr. Hughes, Mr. Krubsack and I are diligently working to finalize who will be my long term sub for the end of the year and the beginning of next school year. I want to assure you that all the standards and opportunities that make the Red Raider Band so amazing will not lapse in my absence. With change there are always unknown aspects and I need your help supporting your children through this brief transition. It is only six weeks out of the entire school year, but it will seem much longer to them. Don't worry- I will be back on October 16th and can't wait for an amazing 2018-2019 school year!
I look forward to seeing you all soon, whether it be the Jazz Concert, Spring Band Concert or Band Banquet I hope to see you supporting our students at one of our Spring events!
As always, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Mrs. Lato
