Tell Your Friends and Family About PALS

The best way to fill up our PALS classrooms in the coming year is for all of us to spread the word. We anticipate openings in every level for the 2016/2017 school year. 

If you know anyone that may be interested in PALS, please let them know that we have an informational meeting scheduled for Jan 26 and another on March 8 at Parkmead. Both meetings will be held in the MPR at 7pm.

Although not required to apply for the program any longer, these meetings are a great way to meet our principal and get more details about the program.
Science Fair 2016!

The Parkmead Science Fair is scheduled for Wednesday, February 24, 6:30-8:30 PM in the MPR.
 
This is an opportunity for students to showcase their science projects.
