Twenty (20) family engagement activities are planned each year to promote par-

ent involvement, which is critical to success not just in school but in life as well.

On the evening of Tuesday April 12th, Main Street hosted 165 children and parents

for Family STEAM Night, a celebration of our children's interests in science, tech-

nology, engineering, art and math. In the Dolphins classroom, children were chal-

lenged to create a balancing tower using popsicle sticks, plastic cups and blocks
