Neale Elementary

Good evening, this is Mrs. Brunicardi at Neale calling to ask you to check your child's backpack for the invitation for the upcoming family STEAM event for all 3rd, 4th and 5th Grade Families. The invitation will explain everything. It is held April 11th, with free Chick fil A at 5:30 and fun family STEAM activities from 6:00-7:45. If you're not eating dinner, come to the gym by 6:00 where sessions will begin promptly. Please fill out the invitation and return it tomorrow, so we can make sure we have enough food for everyone attending. If you already returned an invitation, you do not need to send in the reminder. Hope to see you there!

Buses may be delayed this morning due to high water in several areas across the county. We appreciate your patience as we work to safely pick up and deliver students this morning.
