We have been thinking about how to give families access to our clap-out, and we have a plan. We are going to stream our Third Grade Clap-out live tomorrow, Thursday, June 10 at approximately 11:30 am. You will need to join the Farley Hill PTO Facebook page to view it. If there are technical issues or if you are not able to watch live, we plan to send a recording of the event to 3rd-grade families at a later date. We expect this to be a 10-15 minute celebration.
Please go to our Farley Hill PTO Facebook page to join this closed group.
