Weekly Skillin Scoop
The best way to stay in the know about important dates, calls-to-action, and other information that impacts our Skillin Skyhawks each week. Please take a moment to read this week’s announcements!
Join the Student Directory
The Student Directory is a voluntary directory of contact information for Skillin students by grade
The Student Directory allows families to connect with each other (think birthday invitations or making plans for play dates.)
The school can not give out this information, the directory is optional and will only be distributed to those who choose to participate. You can customize exactly which information you choose to share.
Complete the PTA Student Directory Form for each student you have at Skillin Elementary to include them in the directory.
Want to Volunteer in the School? Attend the Volunteer Training
Anyone who wants to volunteer in the school or chaperone field trips must attend a Volunteer Training session. Join us on Thursday, September 28 in the Skillin Library at 5:30 for this brief 25 minute session.
You only have to attend this training once (since 2014). If you would like a translator present, email Bryna Latham at lathambr@spsdme.org
