Parsons Elementary School

CELEBRATE!!

Hey friends and family,

YAY! We had a whole week of school. I know that may seem strange to celebrate, but it appears uncommon to do so during January and February. This week produced some days of sunshine, laughter, and learning. It made this old man smile!

While enjoying the week, we completed our "Spring" and class pictures. A big thanks to some of our parents for coming and helping through the chaos. Our choir met for the first time this semester. They have been unable due to being out of school.

This next week will be a short week for students. We have our Valentine parties on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday regular days. However, Please notice that students will not be at school Thursday or Friday for teacher in-service, parent/teacher conference, and professional development. Ms. Joyce's program will be open. Please see the pictures below for more information.

A new addition to our weekly newsletter is the follow Scott tab. It is the orange tab on the left. You can sign up through it to receive our newsletter to your email each time it is updated. We are just trying to keep the information flowing to you guys.

I hope you have a wonderful week, and if we can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to call or email Ms. B or me.
