Parent Visitation

Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, we will be holding our Parent Visitations at our schools.  Please remember to "sign-in" at the table in the Main Lobby.  We will have Moore Elementary car magnets for sale - $3/each or 2 for $5!

This is just a friendly reminder that only custodial parents and guardians are permitted to come in for parent visitation.  This refers to the adults in the student's life that makes "educational decisions".  Grandparents, Aunts/Uncles, siblings, etc...unless you are a legal guardian, are not permitted to attend.  We realize that this may be disappointing to some, and we apologize in advance.

If you have a question as to whether you qualify, please feel free to contact the Main Office. 

Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your at Parent Visitation!
