New Family Ambassador Program
New families were all assigned Bishop Ambassadors this month. This is what the Ambassadors are sharing with new families:
- Welcome them to Bishop, introduce yourself (your kids, if you live close by, etc) and see if they have any questions.
- The Grade K Open House is Tuesday, September 5. Grades 1-5 start Tuesday, September 5. Kindergarteners start Wednesday, September 6 or Thursday September, 7 (half the class each day).
- Arlington Family Connection organizes Kindergarten Connection playground meet ups to get to know kids before school starts. The next meet ups are 8/9 at 6:30 pm and 8/19 at 10 am at the Bishop Playground. More info can be found at the the Bishop 2017-2018 Kindergarten Facebook group:

- Also make sure they "Like" the Bishop PTO:

- Encourage your family to sign up for the Bishop School email list now (instructions are in the FAQ) so they can start receiving news from school
- Make sure they know about the FAQ and other New Family Info on our website:

We will continue to get additional new families registering over the summer and we will assign them accordingly. The Ambassador program is covered on the main Bishop website as well.
