Thank you to all of our parents and community members who have obtained the required clearances to volunteer in our school this year. We hope to have the program up and running soon. If you have received your clearances but have not brought them in to the school office, please do so at your earliest convenience. Be assured that you will be notified as soon as the program begins. Thank you for your patience, our teachers are looking forward to your help in the classrooms. Posted 9/23/05
