They will be ready for families to pick up June 7 and 8 in the main office. If you are unable to pick them up at this time, they will be available whenever the main office is open in June and August. We apologize for not having them ready for families at Student-Led Conferences but they will not be released from the state until today and we need time to get them copied and placed in envelopes.

 | Summer Parent Volunteers needed:
|  | |
Can we bring back the wine and cheese parties?
Don't we all look back so fondly on the nights of summer 2009 when Anser parents tore down walls, yanked up carpet, and painted our building into the colorful home we have now! The promise of wine and cheese is, sadly, a ruse, but the need for some help this summer is not! We have plans to replace some carpet, and move the library to a new space so that it will be open to student use more often. We need some volunteers to work on Monday and Tuesday June 4th and 5th moving books and bookcases to the new library location. We will also need some volunteers to move furniture out of some EC classrooms so that the carpet can be replaced, and then move it back in. Please contact Heather Dennis at hdennis@ansercharterschool.org if you can help with these projects to improve our school and save our money to spend on educating children!

They would like to invite anyone who would like to attend and support Sean to a special fundraising event. Share this evening with Sean and Penelope, talk to Sean about his journey thus far, and give them an opportunity to thank, in person, the people that have been so supportive.
