October 2016 PTA news & events

Thanks to all who attended our 1st PTA meeting!  We learned a great deal. Look for the minutes to be posted soon.

Enrichment classes begin this week.

Ascendly Lego class is now open to Kindergarten students!!  The class takes place Wednesday mornings from 8:15-9:15am.   We need 1 or 2 more kids for the class to have critical mass — if we don’t have enough kids for this session, the class will be canceled and we may not be able to offer future Lego classes in the winter and spring).  Visit our Enrichment Program page for registration info this class and all the Enrichment programs.
