Insight Wanted: Help Us Plan Winter Enrichment Programs

Help us plan the winter enrichment schedule!
It’s hard to believe that PTA-sponsored fall enrichment activities are almost over. That means it’s time to start planning the winter session! Please take the PTA survey about the fall session, and give us input about which activities your children would like in the winter.
You can see the tentative winter lineup and take the survey here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ZXQW2HW
Feedback is always welcome to Kakki Lewis and Elizabeth Whitman, PTA co-chairs for enrichment, at [email protected]
