Bake Sale for Winter Concert

PTA will be hosting a Bake Sale at the Winter Concert. 

Sign up HERE, and drop off your baked goods before the concert.  

We also need volunteers to set up, sell items, and clean up.  We will also sell hot chocolate and cider after the concert.

Note: we will not sell during the concert, so any volunteers won't miss a second of the performance!

Happy Holidays!!

We wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season! 

See you back in school on January 7!

Kinder Tours

'Tis the season... for TK/Kinder tours for interested parents at Henry Ford!

Prospective parents always love to hear from current families after a tour with Principal Knopf.  This is a casual Q&A session with a small group (max 10 adults).  Meet outside the office, in front of the gate.   Always fun to do with a friend, but feel free to fly solo as well!

Check this SignUp Genius for dates.
