Prospective Parents Meet & Greet

Each January, the Dilworth PTA hosts a Prospective Parents Meet & Greet for families interested in joining our school community. This casual and welcoming event is a wonderful opportunity to meet members of the PTA Board, connect with other incoming Dilworth families, and ask questions about the school and parent involvement. Light appetizers will be provided, with drinks available for purchase.

Please check back later in the year for additional details.

BEGINNERS DAY FOR RISING KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS

This event is held in the Spring for rising Kindergarteners and will include presentations from Principal Crawford, several of our teachers, our PTA President, and a group of Kindergarteners.
