Stratford Landing “Show Me You School” Night

This student-centered, reimagined Back to School Night will provide a two-hour window for students to show their families what they love about Stratford Landing. Students are the decision makers and tour guides for this night, as they show off their school and our teaching staff. Masks are required regardless of vaccination status.

6th Grade Parents

We are looking for two parents to help chair the 6th grade committee this year. You will have a lot of support from Nicole Chandler, who served this role two years ago, as well as last year’s chairs. This committee is in charge of putting together events for our 6th grade class. The committee has creative control in planning events to celebrate these students’ last year at SLES. Some past events include receiving class shirts, team-building picnic, lock-in, and end-of-year picnic. Many 6th grade parents will contribute along the way, but we’re looking for leaders to get the party started. Grab a friend and do it together!
