play depicting the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The date and times are forthcoming.
8th Grade ParentsIt’s vital that you update the PA 14 (blue sheet) and attach a current lease or deed and
return directly to Mrs. Moody. This will help to properly update your child’s student
records and transfer them to the appropriate school. We still need this form completed
even if you are planning to attend a private school or out of district school because the
student records must be transferred to the home boundary school.
