Curriculum Night Invitation

Dear Families,


We are excited to invite parents and caregivers to our Curriculum Night next week! This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about what your child will be experiencing in the classroom this year. (Please note that this event is for parents only; please make arrangements for students and younger siblings.)


Event Details

We are offering two identical 25-minute sessions each night, so you can choose the time that works best for your family. During these sessions, your student's classroom teacher will share:

  • All the exciting things your child will be learning about in the coming year

  • Specific ways you can support your child's success at home


Schedule

Tuesday, September 9th: Kindergarten-2nd Grade

  • Presentation A: 6:30-6:55 PM

  • Presentation B: 7:05-7:30 PM

Thursday, September 11th: 3rd-5th Grade & AT Math

  • Presentation A: 6:30-6:55 PM

  • Presentation B: 7:05-7:30 PM


Important Notes

  • Can't attend? Don't worry! Teachers will email you all the information shared during the presentation.

  • Individual student discussions: Please note that teachers will not have time for one-on-one conversations about specific students during Curriculum Night. If you need to discuss your child individually, please email their teacher to schedule a separate meeting.

  • Parent-Teacher Conferences are scheduled for October 9th and 10th for more detailed individual discussions


We look forward to seeing you there and appreciate your continued partnership in your child's education!

Warm regards,

Gina Shaw
