Looking for a few good parents!

    4 meetings per year, for a two-year term. This public meeting allows student, staff and parents members to provide input and oversight to the group about the use of supplemental funds for school improvement.

  • Principal Partners Day – Looking for business owners or a representative of their staff who wish to tour the school during the morning of October 17th, followed by an informative luncheon. The purpose of this event is to provide an opportunity to discuss curricular offerings, meet with students and teachers, and discover ways that the private and public sector can work together to improve our local educational programs.
