School Events Begin Next Week

The summer break sped by, and school events start in just one week. Before returning to classes, several important meetings are scheduled for next week. These orientations prepare parents and students for what to expect in the coming year.

The school calendars are available on our website. Each group has a separate calendar, so families with students in more than one group will need to open the respective ones for the most pertenant information. If you have questions about any of the dates, contact the office: 318-325-2077.
