Parents/Guardians of students in grades 3 and 4, we look forward to seeing you at tonight's Back to School Night, beginning at 6pm. You may want to allow extra travel time, as parking in the surrounding neighborhood is often tight. Please be considerate of our neighbors--do not block driveways or park close to curbs. Thank you!
