School Survey

Dear Incarnation School Parents,

Parent input is important to us as we determine the direction for Incarnation School. As we plan ahead for 2012-2013 and beyond, we ask for your participation in a Zoomerang survey. The survey includes questions about the general program Incarnation offers, as well as questions about the possibility of extending the school day/year. Please note that this is a survey to gather your input about the total school program and is not a vote or ballot. Survey results will be one component of the decision-making process. Please look for this survey in your email inbox. Note that the survey is anonymous and should be completed by parents only. We appreciate your responses by Tuesday, May 3rd. Thank you for your participation!

Holy God,
Help us to listen to your word
with open hearts and minds.
May our study lead to prayer
and our prayer lead to good
works and praise.
Amen.


A Message from the Principal

Our computer lab upgrade is well underway! Using approximately $40,000 in SCRIP funds, we have ordered 35 Mac mini computers, additional monitors, and additional furniture to accommodate a full class in the computer lab. We expect to have the lab completely transformed by the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year!

The fundraising efforts continue with the spring auction just a little over a month away! Please see the various inserts in this week’s envelope with updates regarding the auction. Thank you for your continued support of our fundraisers. Remember that dinner RSVPs are due April 15th.

Sincerely,

Ms. Olivia Carrillo
Principal
