Hello DIS Families,                                                                                                                          

Back to School Nights

 Our Back-to-School Nights are being held at 7:00 on the following evenings:

 Monday, September 15^th- 3^rd Grade and Mrs. Bing’s Class

 Tuesday, September 16^th- 4^th and 5^th Grades

• 6:45- Building Opens:
  1. oMrs. Lowe, Mrs. Rash, Mrs. Mignogna and Miss Brown will be at the main entrance to welcome you to our school.
• 7:00-8:00 Session 1: (in your child’s classroom)
  • A presentation will be shared with you providing you with information about DIS.
  • Immediately following that presentation, your child’s teacher or teachers will provide an overview of their classroom.
• 8:05-8:30 Session 2: (special area classrooms, gym or your other child’s classroom)
  • Please use this time to visit our special area teachers or check out the informational tables in the gym. You can also sign up for the PTA at this time.
  • Don’t forget to stop by our library and check out our new computer lab.
  • For parents that may have more than one student, teachers will be available to meet with those parents during this time. Please note, this time is only to meet the teachers. A second presentation will not be given.

This year, on Tuesday, September 16^th, Mr. Dorfman and a representative from Music and Arts will be giving a brief presentation, showcasing available instruments and providing information about instrumental music lessons and band at DIS. The door to the gym will open at 6:15 and the presentation will begin at 6:30. The gym doors will be opened to the main corridor at 6:45 when the front doors open.

Remember that the purpose of the evening is not to discuss your individual student. We will be having parent teacher conferences in just a few short weeks. If you need to discuss your child with his or her teacher, please send the teacher an e-mail or note and they will be happy to reach out to you.

Please be aware that there are no accommodations for supervising your children.  It would be greatly appreciated if you could make arrangements for child care at home.  Parking will be permitted in the area behind the Delran Professional Center on Rt. 130.  Parking on Creek Road is also permitted—on the cemetery side only.  Since even with the new parking lot, space is limited, we encourage carpooling. SUV's may park on the grass area in between the two parking lots.

Picture Day

Picture day will be on Thursday, September 18^th.  Start planning your picture outfits. Forms were sent home and you can order your pictures online. Please visit mylifetouch.com.

Early Pick-ups

Parents, please remember if you need to pick your child up early, please arrive by 2:30 to sign out in the main office.  Otherwise, it is very busy in the main office and you might get delayed in dismissal car lines.  Thank you for helping us with this.

PTA Info

The Delran Elementary PTA provides a tremendous service to our students and our school. In the upcoming weeks, you will be receiving information about ways to become involved in the PTA as well as the KidStuff Coupon Books.  Please be on the lookout for these items and consider becoming involved.

Please fill out a PTA Membership Form, sign up for the School Directory and like the new Delran Elementary PTA Facebook page.  Information and forms can be found at www.delranelementarypta.com.

Have a great weekend.

Educationally yours,

Mrs. Lowe and Mrs. Rash
