The Parent Association has partnered with us to host our last Annual Family Engagement Workshop of the school year.
Parents/guardians of juniors would also benefit, and we encourage them to come with their rising seniors as they contemplate colleges together.
Refreshments will be served, and simultaneous translation will be provided in Chinese!
