Fall TAG Parent Meeting is Oct. 16 at 6:30

-The Fall TAG Parent Meeting is Tues., Oct. 16 at 6:30p. in the Alameda School cafeteria. Please join us. Mr. Lurie and Ms. VanDerWolf will share the latest news on TAG at Alameda and get your feedback on talented & gifted services. (Note - I inquired about the overlap with the town-hall presidential debate but unfortunately it is too late to tweak the time. Get those DVRs ready...come and get all of your TAG questions answered!)

-Individual parent/child TAG survey forms were mailed to homes last week. Please return to your child's teacher early this school year so that they can incorporate your feedback when working with your child. (This is different from the district TAG survey due Sept. 28.)

-We are working hard to offer Saturday Academy enrichment during late start mornings this school year. Please email virginialaforte@me.com if you can help. Thanks!
