DRE Families,

We are excited to welcome parents and guardians to a Parent Orientation night on Thursday, August 27th. Doors will open at 4:50pm, and we will run three 20 minute sessions (with the same information shared during each session) so that families with multiple children can visit more than one room. You can go in any order of classrooms, and also visit with our Specials teachers and Special Education team.

We hope to see you there!
