Churchill Alternative School Council

Hi Churchill Parents! Exciting news... we now have a facebook group! The new group will be much more of a community space for Churchill parents. The goals of the group are to: -->Build connections and develop community among Churchill parents -->Share information from the Churchill Alternative School Council (CASC)... -->Ask questions and discuss topics relating to our school, the local community, and about parenting as it loosely relates to Churchill’s alternative philosophy. Note: The group is for parents of Chuchill students (and school staff) only. Join here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/churchillalternativeparentsgroup/
