PTO Meeting

On Tuesday, January 30 at 6:00 p.m., we will be hosting our next PTO Meeting. During the meeting,  behavioral specialist, Carolyn Haydon, will be coming to provide insights to families behind what they can do when their child exhibits challenging behaviors. The workshop will also focus on tools to effectively address behaviors and understanding what children may be communicating through these behaviors. 

Families may also join from home using the following Zoom link:
