Meet & Greet
As we close one year, we are planning for the next. With this in mind, we are very excited to welcome four new teachers to our faculty for the 2012-2013 school year. On Thursday, June 7, 2012, at 6:00 pm, you will have the opportunity to meet all the teachers for next year. The teachers will be available to “meet and greet” you and share some of their plans for next school year. Summer reading lists and supply lists will also be distributed.
We hope you will join us for this exciting evening.
Sincerely,
Ms. Miller
