Greetings Parents,
Next week is Conference Week. Our students will be dismissed at 12:15 pm on Wednesday and Thursday in order to allow teachers and parents to engage in conferences. If you haven't already had the opportunity to sign up for a conference with your child's teacher, please be sure to reach out to them. We look forward to sharing your child's progress with you.
Have a great weekend!

What is the PTA?
The Parent Teacher Association provides an opportunity for parents to actively engage in their child’s education. It allows parents to connect and build relationships with other parents, while offering opportunities for parents to take part in school activities, attend meetings, and the most important part is being able to be a part of the wonderful team here at Mulberry and collaborate with teachers and administrators so that we together can provide all the keys to success your child needs. Being apart of the PTA does not mean you have to volunteer every single day, you decide what you want your PTA experience to be and how often you would like to be involved, even if that simply means sending in supplies for a classroom activity your child is doing. Our goal this year is to get back to the basics of what the PTA was founded on: advocating for children. The PTA is one of the oldest and largest child advocacy associations in America. The PTA has a legacy of doing amazing things within schools, its surrounding community and passing national legislation that has made major impacts on the lives and education of children.
