Cub Connections Parent Meetings
Earlier this year at a PTA meeting Ms. Martz shared how we would like to host 3-4 informational parent meetings a year. We are calling them Cub Connections! When talking with parents the general consensus was that an additional in-person meeting for parents was sometimes difficult because of child care, family schedules, etc., and we completely understand that. Someone suggested an online meeting instead. This would allow parents to still attend and hear the information. So, we are going to try online Cub Connections information parent meetings this first semester, and we will get parent input to decide how to continue in the future.
So, please join us for a Cub Connections-Parent Information Meeting on Thursday, February 1 at 7:00 p.m. At our February meeting, we will discuss the topics of school attendance, our parent volunteer program, PAW Patrol, and we will also talk a little about keeping schools safe, too. We will send reminders about the February meeting as we get closer to it, and we will send the link to join the meeting on the day of the meeting. We hope you can join us online!
