Principalʼs Corner
Dear Fisher Parents,
As the end of the third quarter rapidly approaches, the countdown to our annual Open House to be held on May 7th this year is also just
around the corner. Why is this important? Because you still have forty more parenting days left to be eligible for our PEP (Purposefully
Engaged Parents) Club raffle and celebration.
If you are already a PEP Club member and have been busy checking off your Principal’s Challenge Tasks, keep up the good work.
If you meant to join and haven’t, you can still stop by our office, pick up a PEP Club brochure, and begin earning credit.
If you recall, any task you accomplish will earn a raffle ticket and a chance to win our fabulous grand prize to be drawn at Open House on
May 7th. Keep in mind the real bonus is the direct benefit you will receive from engaging in your child’s life in positive ways and learning
more about what makes teenagers tick.
Take advantage of this opportunity today and change your relationship with your child for a lifetime.
Sincerely,
Lisa Fraser
Principal
KEEP ME POSTED
