August Monthly Meeting and Educational Program

The Opening Bell

Please join us for our ever popular Opening Bell program, where Dr. James P. Lee, Superintendent of PV Schools will share some of what you and your child can expect in PVSchools this coming year. Dr. Lee, who has led the district since 2009, will give us an update, share some highlights, and answer your questions.

Dr. Lee, with over 30 years of experience in education, believes a student's lifelong success demands mastery of the four C's: communication, collaboration, creativity and critical thinking.

The program will take place August 15, 2018 at 10:15 a.m., after the UPC Monthly Meeting at 9:00 a.m.
