- Math Help for Parents and Students - If you are confused by your child's math homework, you're not alone. It is a very different way of teaching the subject than when you were in school. To help you and your child understand the new math, you can download a free app called Pearson BouncePages on your smartphone or tablet. You then simply scan your child's full math page from the textbook and an animated video will appear to walk you and your child through the concept. Many of the pages also include hands-on practice opportunities for students to get stronger in the skill they have just learned.
- Giving Table - If your family is in need of winter outerwear for children or adults, stop by the Giving Table during November Parent Teacher Conferences. We are still accepting donations through November 14, click here for details.
