From the school

Parent-student Orientation Nights were held in August. Parent registration information and catalogs were provided at that time. Parent Action Committee meetings and individual conferences with parents were scheduled. Several events were held during the school year, including our Open House, International Festival Night, the National Junior Honor Society Induction Ceremony, Student Awards Night, Science and Reading Family Nights, the Library Book Fair, and the Read-a-thon Movie and Book-Give-Away. Parents were invited and attended most of our student field trips. The school's web site was updated weekly with school news and events. Parents could access their students' grades online at home. Our autodialer system called parents if students were absent from school.
