Principal's Post
Dear Head families,
The first few days of school were a huge success! I loved seeing all the smiling faces back in the classrooms! Teachers are busy getting to know your children better. Teachers are also preparing for Curriculum Night. Curriculum Night is a big deal for us here at Head because it's the night that teachers will explain ALL the important things about being in their classrooms. Parents will get to learn about the standards students will learn this year, how homework works on this grade level, what important dates or events to schedule, and much, much more! We would LOVE to have 100% attendance for our families for this important evening. Due to parking limitations, we split our night in to 2 evenings. Both evenings begin at 6pm and last approximately one hour.
August 16th- Kindergarten, First, and Second Grades
August 18th- Third, Fourth, and Fifth Grades
*If your child is in the gifted program, there is an additional meeting on August 18th at 5:15pm in the cafeteria.
We hope to see you there!
