Please share with your friends, family and neighbors.  Thanks so much for you support!

A note from Parents As Teachers:


What is PAT?  Parents As Teachers is a program created by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.  This program is completely voluntary and FREE to all families within the Clever School District.  It is designed to provide a support network for all families that begins during pregnancy and continues until the child enters Kindergarten.  PAT services include:  Home visits, group meetings and activities such as play groups, story times, and parent education opportunities, developmental screenings, and resource network.  If you are interested in learning more about PAT, or you would like to enroll your children in PAT please contact Paula Harvey or Mikki Teague at 743-4810, or by email at:  harveyp@clever.k12.mo.us or teaguem@clever.k12.mo.us.  You can also follow us on Facebook:  Clever Parents As Teachers.

PLAYGROUP TOMORROW at 10:00

It's almost Friday! You know what that means----
FIRST PLAYGROUP OF THE YEAR! We hope to see you on the playground from 10:00-11:00 tomorrow. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and come join us. If you have a preschooler in the AM session, they'll be joining us and then you're free to take them with you at the end of our time together. Since PM preschoolers don't have class on Fridays, bring them up for some fun with their AM friends and the other PAT kids!
Be there or be square! Let's kick off the holiday weekend with some social time fun!
