Have a Question?

Each month we try to put on a parent program to accompany our PTA General meeting.  Each month showcases a different grade level and a different theme.

 

It is for these programs that we are in need of some help.  We currently have several parents that are in need of a sign language interpreter to allow them to fully understand and enjoy the program that their child is participating in.

 

The school district supplies money to get these interpreters for parent conferences but does not fund this work for student programs such as the ones we produce monthly.  Without and interpreter some of these parents are left at a disadvantage and cannot enjoy the work of their children.

 

We would like to try and find a volunteer that is capable of interpreting our programs for those that are hearing impaired.  This is not a monthly need as the parents that need the assistance do not have children in every grade level.  If you would like more information please contact me any time.

Volunteer Needed!

Music Website Changes

                 Well, I have had some time to make some updates and changes to the site.  The biggest change is the “Photo Albums” area.  Now you can get to these pages two ways (1) you can click on the Photo Albums link on the navigation menu to the left or you can go directly there by using the internet address www.photos.mrvansclass.com.  The main change to these pages are all organizational and cosmetic.  Let me know what you think.  There are more changes to come as we continue through summer.
