The Latest School News!

Dear Stephenson Families,
We had a terrific turnout for Kindergarten Round-Up last Thursday. Thank you much to the kindergarten teachers, Heather, Fermin, PTA, Foundation, SCCA, and parent panel volunteers. We definitely do not have to worry about our kinder numbers for next year.
I want to invite you to two important events coming up. First, I am holding a Principal's Chat to share information about the 2012-13 school year budget and staffing. It is on Friday, February 24 at 8AM. So drop off the kids and then come join me in the staff room.
The other event I want to personally invite you to is the Stephenson Foundation Auction on Saturday, March 10. It is sure to be a fun and memorable event. And the best part of all, you will be an active part of providing the Essentials classes for our kids next year.
I hope you're all having a wonderful three-day weekend and looking forward to seeing you soon.
