C.E.T. Activities
Parents work together to form CurriculumEnhancementTeams that prepare FUN academic events to celebrate the completion of major units of study. These activities reinforce and bring to life the Core Knowledge concepts that the students have just mastered. We have 3 CETs planned for this year: The Human Body, Ancient Egypt, and Mexico. If you would like to participate in our CET activities, or if you are interested in donating supplies, please contact our room parent or the CET coordinator: Parent Coordinators
