Notes from the Nest

Today was a fun-filled day at SEES with so many Eagles wearing green!  If you have a Kindergartener, be sure to ask them how their rooms looked this morning. 

Heritage Night was an absolutely amazing and memorable night!  Thank you to everyone who shared food, displays, stories, and participated in the parade. Kudos to our staff members who put the event together and the SEES PTA for sponsoring the activity.  

Congratulations to our band students who participated in Area Band which culminated in a wonderful concert this week.

To start, parents/guardians can fill out a permission slip (via this Google Form)  which gives consent to provide Art To Remember with your student's name and teacher.  Filling out this form does not obligate you to purchase anything, but is required if you want the option to purchase any artwork products.  Please submit the permission slip no later than March 31st.  If you have any questions, please contact Ashley Doss, PTA President, at ashley.n.doss1@gmail.com.
