OSCEOLA SCIENCE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER - August 31, 2018
UPCOMING EVENTS
Saturday, September 8th (11:30 am - 1 pm)
Dear Parents/Guardians,
At Osceola Science Charter School, we know the important role grandparents play in our student's lives. As such, we like inviting our grandparents to come and enjoy a special day here at OSCS, along with their grandchildren.
Please join us for a special day to honor our grandparents on Saturday, September 8th at 11:30AM. The event will take place in the Cafeteria where lunch will be served. After a short introduction from our principal, grandparents can make their way to the classrooms to see student work and receive a gift from their grandchildren.
The purpose of this special program is three-fold:
1. To honor grandparents;
2. To give grandparents an opportunity to get more information about their grandchildren’s school; and
3. To help children become aware of the strength, information and guidance older people can offer.
We encourage students, parents, and grandparents to come together to celebrate!
If you wish to attend our special Grandparents Gathering, please click here and fill out the online form.
*Please complete the form by Wednesday, Sept 5th*
We hope to see you all there!
