Watch Me Work Day- Time for event TBD
Please note- the time for this event is still to be determined.
Please join your child in their classroom for Watch Me Work Day. Students will choose a few of their favorite/recent works to demonstrate to you. Teachers will be on hand to help and facilitate, but this is a time for you to get to know a bit about your child's expression of themselves as a student and enjoy their enthusiasm for learning (aka not a conference). Plan to spend 30 minutes maximum observing the works your child has planned to show you. You will receive an email regarding this closer to the date and larger classes may have a sign-up for time slots to avoid over-crowding in the classroom.
