Parent Orientation (Grades 1-8)

Parent Orientation is this Thursday, August 23rd, at 6:00 p.m., for parents with students in grades 1-8. Your child's teacher(s) will explain curriculum, homework, what to expect for the year, and how your partnership with them will help your child succeed this year. Presentations start every 30 minutes to allow parents to visit multiple homerooms if you have more than one child. Please go directly to your child’s homeroom unless noted differently below. We strongly encourage at least one parent from every family attend. This is a parents only event.

In addition to visiting classrooms, there will also be sessions offered in the library for parents who would like extra education as we transition from extrinsically motivated reading (AR) to intrinsically motivated lifelong reading. Please feel free to stop by the library at any of the Orientation sessions: 6:00, 6:30 and 7:00.

First grade will meet in Mrs. DeMuth's classroom: 1C
Second grade will meet in Mrs. Riley's classroom: 2B
