Principal Note
Open House/Meet the Teacher
The Open House/Meet the Teacher event for all Kindergarten-2nd Grade families this past Monday night was soul-filling. Our hallways were filled with joyful noise, and it was so much fun to see your reactions to being back in the building (some of you for the first time), seeing your child’s classroom, desk, cubby, etc. I also want to express my gratitude to all of our Mustang parents for following the health and safety guidelines. It is important to me that events, such as this, are able to continue, which helps build the sense of community that is so badly needed at this time.
Our 3rd-5th Grade families will have their opportunity to attend an Open House this coming Thursday, September 23rd. The event runs from 5:30-6:30. To alleviate crowding in the classrooms, your child’s classroom teacher may organize a schedule that staggers arrival/departure times.
As we prepare to welcome parents and guardians into the schools for open house/meet the teacher, I want to provide you with important information that will help make this event run smoothly. The open houses are designed to provide you with the opportunity to meet teachers, tour the school, and see the classrooms. There will be Munhall staff at the main entrance, as well as throughout the hallways helping parents find their child’s classrooms. In order to maintain a safe environment for parents, guardians, and staff members, all attendees need to:
- Wear a mask that covers their nose and mouth regardless of vaccination status
- Avoid congregating in large groups while in the building
- Honor that this is a parent/guardian event only
Conferences are scheduled for October 7 and 8. Parent/Teacher conferences will give you the opportunity to have an in-depth conversation with your child’s teacher if you have questions or concerns.
Fall Conferences
Fall conferences are scheduled for Thursday, October 7th and Friday, October 8th. There will be NO School for students on these two days. Parents sign-up for conferences using ‘Pick-A-Time’, which can be accessed through Home Access Center (HAC). Pick-A-Time opens on Wednesday, September 22nd and will remain open through Tuesday, October 5th. When signing up for conferences, parents will have the option of signing up for a virtual or in-person conference. In the coming days, I will send step-by-step directions for signing up for a conference.
Lunchroom/Recess Supervisors
Wanting to work at Munhall for a few hours a day, a couple days a week? I am still looking for a few lunchroom/recess supervisors to fill out our staffing. If interested, please contact Patricia Burton at Patricia.Burton@d303.org.
Have a great weekend!
