Dear Parents,
Have you made your summer plans yet? Wondering what
to do with the kids? On Saturday, May 30th we will host an
Educational Fair from 9:00-11:30am. The fair is an opportunity to receive resources and information on how to keep
your child engaged in fun and meaning activities during the
summer. As always the days’ event will be interactive so plan
to be an active participant throughout the morning. This is our
last parent event for this school year and our focus continues
to be on ways to support you. I look forward to having you
join us.
Sincerely,
Ms. Gorden
