Diana Apresa from Spaces of Opportunity was our guest speaker to talk to our familes about the farmer’s market, SNAP, Food Bucks and their double up program and events. I attached the invitation to make shadow boxes for valentines on Feb. 9th.
Dr Banks thanked parents for coming and discussed sports, extracurricular activities, AZELLA, and other testing. Parents communicated that they were happy with the teachers, and they were sorry to hear she was leaving at the end of this school year.
Thank you,
