Lots of stuff is happening the next few weeks as we get through September and into October.

Come visit with the teachers, see classrooms and the school. There will be a Title I meeting in the gym at 5:30 p.m. to explain what Title I is and how it will be used at Parkwood. After the meeting, teachers will be available in their classrooms.
PTO Meeting – September 20 7:00 p.m.
The first PTO meeting of the year will be held in the gym. Come find out what the PTO has planned for the 2016-2017 school year, including HOOPLA coming in November.
