CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS:
As you may recall, our Fun Run money went into updating the book room at FSE that teachers use to pull from to teach in their reading groups. We are in the very exciting process of seeing our hard work from the Fun Run come to life. We are in need of parent volunteers who are willing to come and help with the process. This is a very important task as it impacts all classrooms in the building and if you'd be willing to help please contact Chelsey Mallory at cjmallory@dcsdk12.org.
