Paradise Place 4th of July Parade 2010

We are so delighted to be starting a new school year with you, the new and returning families of Paradise Place School.  This year, we are excited about using our NEW WEBSITE to update you on news, events and even snack calendars at the school!  Please take the time to familiarize yourself with all the new site has to offer including:

POSTING & COMMENTS: Each month we will post the Paradise Place Newsletter to the site as well as Event Updates, Fundraising Information &  Fun Activity Pages.  Once the information is posted to the site you may comment on any of the posts that we put on the site!  You can use comments to organize rides, share info about upcoming activities and events at the school or around CB, organize pot lucks for our annual christmas show or picnic or just let us know how you are doing.  We encourage you to use the site’s commenting feature to communicate with each other and with teachers and staff, however, it is important to keep your child’s personal information and whereabouts private so please do not include this kind of information in your comments.   Our most recent posts are listed on the website in the right hand ‘sidebar’.

NEWSLETTERS: Parents and Board Members are automatically included in our mailing list.  If you or anyone you know would like to receive our monthly newsletter please sign up on the website.   You can use the registration box in the right hand sidebar or go to the Newsletter Registration Page.   If you are a Parent or Board Member and are not receiving our email updates please sign up on the site or contact Mr. Ben to get registered. You can unsubscribe from the emails at anytime.

EVENT CALENDARS: I have already posted all of Paradise Place vacation time and school closings for the year on the calendar.  If there are any dates you would like to see added to the calendar please email Mr. Ben.  Upcoming Events are displayed in the right hand ‘sidebar’ as well as on the Calendar Page.
