We Are Listening!

Parents you are invited to sign up for a Listening Conference
Optional but Recommended Listening Conference
A listening conference gives you, the parent an opportunity to connect with and tell us your child’s teachers about your child.  Our role will be to listen and learn more about your child and home-life. The conference is an optional opportunity, can be held in person or on the phone, and is intended to be brief (approx. 15 min).
Available conference times are listed below.  Please select 2 or 3 times that you would like to meet and email Mrs. Parnell (parnell@bpsk12.org).

To assist you in the preparing your thoughts and guide our conversation, we will forward a form for you to complete and bring along to the meeting.  The questions are a guide to focus our conversation, however you are welcome to share anything you feel would be pertinent.   Please bring completed form to our conference so that we may have it to reference. Thank you for sharing your son/daughter with us!

Welcome to Kindergarten!

Welcome to Kindergarten Room 101 at Pine Glen! We can not wait to meet all of our incoming students and families. Letters have been mailed out to students and their parents. Below is a summary of what those letters cover.

-Thursday, September 8th is our kindergarten orientation. This is an important day for both parents and students as we will have lots of
information to share and will hopefully answer many of the questions you may have.


-Be sure to bring contact information for cell phones, emergency contacts and medical information as there will be many forms to complete.


-In the note addressed to students I asked students to help me by drawing a picture of your home. We will begin the year with an exploration of houses and styles (like those of the 3 little pigs made of straw, stick and brick!).

-There are many ways to learn about and be in touch with room 101 -
