Parent Advisory Council
Next Meeting August 11, 2020 from 5:00-6:00PM
Message from Principal King and Director Rouner
We will not be holding a family meeting this week but will follow up with you next Tuesday, August 11th from 5:00-6:00 PM to discuss our finalized plans for the school year and to answer any additional questions you may have. Thank you for your patience as we prepare to welcome your children back to school.
The reopening plan is updated with the information we have to share at this point. Please see pages 19-25 for new additions since last week. The new additions include the morning screening questions for families to administer with their children, arrival plans, dismissal plans, and information about Bearcat Club. We appreciate your emails and participation in the parent meetings to assist us in the creation of this plan. We value your perspective and the support you have provided.
Horace Mann and the Leet Center are planning an in-person return to school Wednesday evening August 12th for 2020-2021 Back to School Night. Our families are invited to join us in front of Brown Hall to the east of Horace Mann and Leet Center. Please watch your email for an update on the scheduled time for your family between 5:00-7:00 PM.
- Bring your child's school supplies in a bag with their name clearly written on it. We will have carts outdoors for you to place them in.
- Visit your child's teacher and plan to take your child's picture with their teacher as this year's Back to School Picture.
- Last year's Art Show will be not be missed! Horace Mann's children's works of art will be out for you to enjoy on walk through panels.
- We are grateful to Well's Bank for cooking our individually wrapped meals for the evening. Your family may take them to go or bring a large blanket to picnic socially distanced in the yard near Colden Pond.
