The second of three spring meetings of our parent group will meet April 21st from 6:30-8:30pm!

Parent Involvement Group Meeting – Please Come! (stay informed by signing up for our email list- see below)

Parents at Great River School are creating a parent organization, which will someday soon have a cleverer name! Please come to our next meeting on Tuesday, April 21st from 6:30-8:30pm. At our March meeting we outlined priorities
for what the GRS parent group will do. They include:

·         Volunteer coordination
·         Building connections between families
·         Welcoming new and transitioning families
·         Assessing GRS staff needs
·         Increasing conversation between school and parents re: Montessori
·         Creating inclusive parent involvement
·         Making school life simpler and easier
·         Political advocacy work
·         Explore outside funding
·         Maximizing student/faculty/parent access to expertise and skills
·         Enhancing enrichment opportunities

Our April meeting will focus on creating a structure in which to effectively get this work done. Please join us and bring another parent with you. We need a diversity of ideas! Parents from all levels at GRS are needed.
