Armstrong’s Agenda 8/9
Hello Power Campus Roadrunners!
Happy night before school starts. Thank you so much for attending open house last night. It was truly wonderful to see each and every one of you last night. I have attached the power point from open house for your convenience.
The first two days of school are all about building relationships and students will NOT need to bring their backpacks until Monday.
Below you are going to find a couple of FAQ’s to help the first few days of school go right.
