MESSAGE FROM PRINCIPAL LAMBERT
Dear Mariano Castro Parents,
Parents partnering with our school is very important to every student's success. Next week is another one of those opportunities to participate in your child's education. March 13-March 17 is Teacher/Parent Conference Week. We need 100% parent participation in these conferences so please keep your appointment time or communicate as soon as possible if you need to change your time. The only minimum day that week is the regular Thursday minimum day; on the other days the dismissal time remains the same as usual.
We are also very fortunate that PTA will be holding a Scholastic Book Fair that week! Please see the attachments for the open hours. This Book Fair is a fundraiser for PTA and it's a great opportunity to buy some inexpensive books to add to your home collection.
Theresa Lambert
From CSMA: Smaller, school-based end-of-the-year "choralfests" in the future.
