Message From the Principal
Dear Parsons Families,
Thank you so much to all the families who donated money, brought in food, packed presents, and wrote cards to make Teacher Appreciation Week a success. Our staff loved feeling so pampered and spoiled!
There are lots of events taking place this week! We can't wait to see our students shine at the Talent Show and Kid Frankenstein play. Parsons is also in the spotlight at this week's Board of Education meeting. Let's make it a great week!
Sincerely,
Sarah Aherne
