Happy Holidays!!!
Coming Up at Sherwood:

We are so happy that the Enrichment Program is so popular with our students and parents!! Thanks to everyone that participated this fall, as we know this is a fun learning opportunity for the kids.
As we move into the winter session, we will only be offering 2 classes starting in January:

Young Rembrandts January 31 - April 11 (no class February 28 or March 7, grades 1-6, 3:50-5:00, Art room)

World of Spanish January 28-May 6 (no class February 18 and April 15, grades K-6, 8:05-9:05, Art room).

The PTA's goal is to offer enrichment classes that provide additional learning & development outside of the classroom. And we need more parent involvement & support!

In January, we are looking for 2-3 parent volunteers that can assist and evaluate our current Enrichment Program. If you are interested, contact Becky Lindeman at wecky77@aol.com.
Our goal is work through the changes needed and come back with a better organized and supported Enrichment Program next fall.

Thanks for your support!!

** All registrations close on January 21 - no late registrations accepted**
*Scholarships/fee waivers are available for FHSD students. For more information regarding scholarships/fee waivers please contact Lisa Cranfill at  lisasuttman@foresthills.edu
