Home-School Connection – November 2018

From the Principal

This is an exciting month at Schoharie Elementary School. We hope you and your loved ones who fought for our country will join us at our Veterans Day assembly on November 14th.  We are looking forward to honoring those who have served to protect our freedom, and learning in the process.
The Thanksgiving Luncheon is a wonderful time for you to join us at school, see your children, their classmates, and our school community come together to enjoy a fantastic feast. This opportunity allows us to celebrate all we are thankful for, and we truly look forward to it.
– Mrs. Polikoski
