SUBJECT: Sandburg: Back to School Curriculum Night Thursday!

Hello Sandburg!

Thursday is Back to School Curriculum Night.  Teachers are getting ready to share important information and highlight the exciting learning opportunities that lie ahead. If you're interested in becoming a Room Parent, please sign-up with your teacher.  

Take a moment to review the Sandburg PTO Board.  Feel free to ask questions or introduce yourself - we are here to help!

CSSAC will begin meetings on September 30th in the Sandburg Library.  CSSAC is the Carl Sandburg School Accountability Committee and has two primary responsibilities.  

  1. To make recommendations to the principal on the school priorities for spending school funds.
  2. To make recommendations to the principal and superintendent concerning the preparation of a school Unified Improvement Plan.

All Sandburg families are welcome to attend meetings!
