Grade 4-7 Parent Evening is on Wednesday, April 5th from 6:30pm -8:30pm in the gym. This is a mandated meeting from the Archdiocese for all schools. We will be showing a screening of Screenagers followed by a short debrief. Our school paid for a license for this private screening as we feel that this is a very important topic in today’s world. Please make every effort to come to this evening - I promise you it will be eye opening and well worth your time!
