- The Alameda Fall TAG Parent Meeting is October 16, 2012 in the Alameda cafeteria from 6:30-7:30 PM. Learn about the 2012-13 Alameda TAG plan and ask Mr. Lurie and Ms. VanDerWolf questions. (Note - We inquired about the overlap with the town hall presidential debate, but unfortunately it is too late to tweak the time of the meeting. Please get those DVRs set and join us to get your TAG questions answered!)

- Now that you've completed the District TAG Survey (many thanks!), please spend a few minutes on a parent survey about TAG at Alameda.  Please fill it out by Oct. 15. Your answers will help shape talented & gifted student services at Alameda, and I'll use your feedback as I work with the PPS TAG Parent Advisory Council this year.
