Curriculum Night
2024-08-27 17:30 - 19:30 UTC | Largo, 7100 142nd Ave N., Largo, FL, 33771, United States
Please join us on August 27th from 5:30p.m. to 7:00p.m.

All K-8 Families!

As parents, we’ve all asked our children, “How was school today?” or “What did you learn?” only to be met with the classic response, “Nothing.” Curriculum Night is your opportunity to get real answers to those questions!
Some things you may see are:

the tools your child is using in class
academic expectations
behavior expectations
assessments and goal tracking
online programs, books, and content being utilized
how your child’s teacher grades and communicates between school and home
homework policies
sign up sheets for formal 1 on 1 conferences

The time you invest now to learn what your child is ​learning​ will pay dividends later!
​Curriculum night is meant to bridge the home​-school partnership.
The time also count​s​ toward your volunteer hours!
