Highlights

  • Spring Social May 10 — Oops! We Did it Again: It’s the social event of the year! So save the date; and if you are able to contribute to the silent auction to raise funds for our school, please get in touch with our organizers. Details and contact info here: https://www.thesocialhoward.com
  • Ideas (Always) Welcome: By this point in the year, budgets are allocated and parents are using your contributions to turn ideas into realities for our kids and school. Yes, and… if you have an idea for something you’d like to see at Howard, it’s not too late. Your School Council can help mobilize families and can find ways to fund ideas that need cash.
  • Principal’s Update: Every School Council meeting includes an update from our Principal with time for questions. It’s casual and informative and a great way — especially for new families — to understand how the school runs and how to get information and help.

If you cannot attend or prefer to ask questions anonymously, please submit your questions here.
