Kramer PTG Conference Meal Information
Spring Parent-Teacher Conferences are on March 5th (Tuesday) and March 7th (Thursday) this year. Kramer PTG provides meals on those nights when teachers/staff work extra long hours. Kramer PTG will purchase the main dish. But we ask parents for help on other items & to help set up & break down the meals. The teachers are extremely appreciative of the food because they are going straight from teaching to meeting with parents. It's an easy way for us to show how much we appreciate all they do. We feed about 40-50 teachers/staff each night & set up identical meals in the downstairs & upstairs work rooms. So we need as much help as we can get!
March 5th (Tuesday) - Taco bar & sides
March 7th (Thursday) - Soup & Salad bar
