Communication
Education is a partnership between home
and school. We value parent/guardian
involvement at every level and encourage
you to partner with us. In order for this
partnership to be effective, we need to be
able to communicate.
Please feel free to call or e-mail us if you
have concerns or questions about your
child’s education. We are always available
to talk and willing to schedule a conference
to discuss any issue or concern you have
regarding your child.
