Family Literacy Night - This Wed. April 4

Coming Next Week! 
Family Literacy Night
Wednesday, April 4

We hope you will join us for Family Literacy Night! A brief PGO meeting will be from 6-6:30pm in the cafeteria and pizza will be available (please sign up so we know how much to order!). At 6:30, parents/guardians head to the library where English/Language Arts Coach Linda Castronovo will give a presentation on curriculum with a focus on what parents can do to help their students become stronger readers and writers. Kids will stay in the cafeteria with Mt. Holyoke students who will guide interactive literacy activities. Preschool age and above siblings are welcome to participate in the activities while parents attend the adult session. Childcare for younger children will also be available. 

In order to plan for pizza, activities, and childcare, please sign up online for this event by CLICKING HERE or returning the blue form sent home last week. You can also call the office at 362-1200 to sign up
