Straley Families, due to unforeseen circumstances we will not have tutoring this week. We apologize for the late notice!
Straley Parents, We will be traveling by bus on Thursday throughout the day to the Chuck Mathena Center for rehearsal. Students have a signed permission form from the beginning of the school year. Therefore, another form is not needed. If you do not want your student going, please let your child’s teacher know. Our Music Program will begin at 6:00 pm Thursday night. The doors will open at 5:30 pm and students should be on the stage at 5:45 pm. We hope to see everyone there!
Straley Stallions, Don't forget that Monday we have Girls Who Code. Participants needs picked up at 4:00 pm.
Straley Families, Don't forget that we are going to watch the Princeton High Band performance tomorrow. Please make sure your child is dressed warmly as we will be outside at the stadium. Thank you!
Hey Straley Families!! The Dentist is at Straley today and tomorrow! If you didn't get your student's permission slip in, turn it in now. We can still get them seen.
Hello Straley parents and guardians, Wednesday, September 17th at 5:30 is our PTO meeting. We are also offering assistance at that time for those who still need help logging on to the Mercer County School App. Making sure you are active on this app is crucial for your child's classroom updates and announcements. This is how our teachers reach out to let you know anything regarding your child's academics and behavior. We can't wait to see you there! 😊🐴
