Our First PoWeR Session is fast approaching!  This year we will be offering 3 PoWeR sessions throughout the 2013-2014 school year. Based on last year's feedback from families we have decided to publish all of the session choices at once so families can see a year's worth of offerings and plan accordingly. If changes should be made to any of the sessions prior to the start of a session we will notify all of families 1-2 weeks prior. Our first session will be held October 21 st - 25 th, our second March 31 st - April 4 th, and third June 5 th - 11 th. All sign up forms are due by October 7 th. PoWeR session information including a menu of classes, sign up forms and informational letter can be found below as well as on our website. Information is also being mailed home this week. This year you may also sign up online using Google Forms which are also linked below |
