COMMUNITY
Parents in the Classroom
Parental involvment both in and out of the classroom in critical for a child's success. We encourage and invite parents or grandparents to volunteer in our classrooms with reading and other special areas.
We ask that our parent volunteers attend a short training session before joining in the classroom. Please call or email us to find out when the next training is available.

LOWES FOODS GIFT CARDS
Place your order at the office.
Remember, it’s a win-win - the purchaser receives the full value of the gift cards which can be used for anything Lowes Foods sells - food, drinks, other gift cards, even gas at Lowes or Hess, and Lowes pays the school a percentage. Some people purchase $10, some purchase thousands at a time - and you can choose whatever denomination suits you.

"Nature revels in diversity. Just as no two human faces are alike, so each mind is a special creation and builds up a unique system of knowledge... Each has its own special capacities,its own method of organizing its experience, its own flashes of illumination."
