Dear WP Parent,

I hope that you and your family are staying safe and warm in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

In lieu of the meeting which was scheduled to take place on October 30, I would like to provide you with an update of upcoming Parents Association activities.  

As a follow-up to our last meeting, we are working towards creating a parents e-newsletter.  Please share your ideas on what kind of information you would like to see in our newsletter, as well as the types of events you would like to see offered on campus for parents.
