From the Principal

Dear Parkview Families,

We are excited to welcome you for conferences on November 2 and 3. Parent teacher conferences provide a great opportunity for you to visit with your child's teacher about the progress your child is making in school and how we can partner together to best support their learning goals. You may sign up for a conference time using this link: https://www.ptcfast.com/schools/Parkview_Elementary.
You can also find the link on the Parkview website or use the Conferences Sign Up button below. 
 
We have had a great couple of weeks celebrating our PTO read-a-thon and our school spirit days. Our students have had fun participating in a variety of ways. 
 
We hope you enjoy the long weekend with your child! 
 
Sincerely, 
Nicole Garcia, Principal
