Junior Parkston students 2023-2024 had a first meeting with Mrs. Mette today about what all happens next year for fundraising, prom etc. They were sent home with a letter of details, and asked to put down a parent/guardian email.
If you did not get an email from Mrs. Mette your student did not write one down, or it was not legible!
Either way, if you would like to be added to the Junior class email distribution list to stay on top of what needs done for next year please email Mrs. Mette
