Back to School Night

9/19/2013 Thursday: Back to School Night and Book Fair 6pm-8pm. Classrooms will be open from 6:30pm-7:30pm.

Back to School Night is a wonderful opportunity to learn about 5th grade in Room 502. Also, it is a time to see a sample of the assignments completed by your child during the first few weeks of school. If your child went to Science Camp, this is your opportunity to pick up their Walden West souvenirs and/or their 4 C award. Also, you will be able to sign-up early for Winter Conferences.

I look forward to seeing you Thursday.

Science Camp Return

If you are one of the parents who are transporting luggage back to school, please arrive here at Walden West by 11am.

The bus will return to school, Friday between 12:15pm and 12:30pm. Please be there to sign your child out and take them home. I know you have missed them and they have a lot of fun stories to tell you upon their arrival.
