Dear Parents/Guardians,

Ellis School has scheduled an open house April 8th from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for parents and students. During this time your child will show you what he/she has learned, and it will be a wonderful learning experience for both you and your child. 

In the event that you need to discuss your child progress with the teacher, please arrange a separate time for a more private meeting.

I am looking forward to seeing both you and your child.

Sincerely,

Denise Thompson
