If you already have a binder for your child, please bring it as we will be using it throughout the day. If you don't have a binder, you can opt to purchase a binder package, which includes: a binder, loose-leaf paper, a pencil pouch, a highlighter, dividers, protective sheets, a pen, a pencil, sticky notes, and a 3 hole punch.
This is an event any parent or caregiver does not want to miss.
