September and October are going to be fun at Parker!
Our PTO website has been updated with all the details, be sure to check it out.
Enrichment Clubs Enrollment Ends THURSDAY, 9/14 at 6pm!
Registration for after school clubs closes September 14th!
If you haven’t gotten a confirmation email, check your PTO orders and make sure the order has been completed.
We have a few clubs that need more students to meet their minimums. Take a look at some of these if you are on the fence:
Digital Music Production Club: learn how to create, mix, record, and remix original digital tracks. Grades 3-5. Meets Tuesday.
Ukulele Club: Students receive their own Ukulele and gather to learn and play together. All levels welcome. Grades 3-5. Meets Tuesday.
Mad About Hoops Hula Hoop Club: Grades 1-5. Meets Tuesday.
EARLY Dance Club: a dance program for all levels focusing on movement and fun. There is 2 different times: early 3 - 3:40 Grades K-2 and 3:45 – 4:45 Grades 3-5 Meets Monday.
If one of the above options is a club you are signed up for, no need to worry. Lots of clubs meet minimums the last day.
If your club doesn’t meet its minimum, we will contact you on Friday, Sept 15 to let you know and work to find a space for your child in another club or refund the cost.
Enrichment Club volunteers will be doing their best to get back to you as soon as they can.
