BEH Connect to Kindergarten this thursday

A message from Principal Kaveh (kpaksere@pps.net) of Boise-Eliot/Humboldt elementary:

Our first opportunity for families of incoming kindergarten students for next year to come and learn more about what Kindergarten looks like at BEH is this Thursday at 5:30 pm. If you know families that will be or are considering coming to BEH for kindergarten, let them know to come by. Additionally, we will have two more of these opportunities in May and August. I am also always open to catching families when it works for them as well, so feel free to have them reach out to the school directly if they want to schedule a time to come and connect this spring.
