Parent/Teacher Interviews Tomorrow

Starting at 5:30 pm tomorrow, Parent/Teacher Interviews will occur in the school gymnasium. Teachers will be listed in alphabetical order.

Interviews will go until 8:30 pm.

We will have interpreters on site but please do make a formal appointment time with your child's teacher and indicate if you will need an interpreter - along with what language you speak.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Tomorrow is also Earth Day!
Even though we should be environmentally responsible every day, let's make a special effort to do so tomorrow.
