Add an Address to Horace Mannager Distribution List

Mark your calendars!   If you have a child starting kindergarten next fall and are interested in hearing about the kindergarten curriculum, please join us for an informational meeting on Wednesday, January 29^th from 2:00pm-3:00pm in our library.  You will be able to pick up a registration packet and have it ready to return on February 6^th, 2014, our kindergarten registration day!  The principal will answer all your questions and take you on a tour of Horace Mann.  If you know of a neighbor or friend that has an incoming kindergartner, please pass this information along!                      

This exciting program involves all 3rd and 4th grade students at Horace Mann.  Upon completing their multiplication facts, our students will have the opportunity to kneel before our royal Mrs. Spaulding to be knighted and honored with their classmates.

Many of the 4th grade students were knighted last year. They will have ONE opportunity this year to become senior knights. The Horace Mann Senior Knighting Ceremony will be held on Thursday, December 19th at 2:00 PM. Parents of those being knighted are invited to attend.

Do lots of multiplication review at home so that you can one day soon join The Knights of the Multiplication Table!

Parking Lot Patrol - do you like drop off to go smooth in the morning?  Then we need more than one faithful helper.

Math Club - without volunteers, we cannot keep this going.

Nominating Committee - the PTSA cannot provide all its great programs without members.  We'll need to scale back without volunteers.
