Our goal is 95% acknowledgment per class—congrats to Alegre, Dennis, Galvan, O'Leary, Modiano & Neiner for already hitting it! Top classrooms that are chasing 95% are: Sobel (92%); Cowell, Caffo, and Cooper (91%); Punzalan (88%); Braidic (87%). Most classes need just one more family to RSVP. We are so close folks, keep it going!
