PTA "Office Hours" on the Yard. Want more info about upcoming PTA events? Interested in getting involved but not sure how yet? Have questions about the different school platforms? Join us on the yard this Friday morning at drop-off (8/30, 8:25-8:40am) or next Friday at pick-up (9/6, 3-3:20pm) and we'll do our best to answer your questions or connect you with the right person!
Message from Mr. Jeff: Welcome back to the Library!
- Summer Reading BINGO forms (for returning students who participated) are due COMPLETED to me by Fri Sep. 6 so there's plenty of time (Bingo print out is attached).
- I'm also looking for some volunteers to help out with my weekly library classes. Unlike some other volunteering opportunities I'm looking for folks who can make a weekly commitment or every other week commitment though we do have some need for one-time special events as well. Please complete this Volunteer Google Form if interested (or join the Kontsella Library Committee).
- If you're new to our school and have any questions concerning the library please reach out.
