Welcome to Memorial School's website! I think you will find this site very informative and user-friendly. Any comments or suggestions that you may have would be appreciated. Please feel free to contact your child's teacher or myself via e-mail, telephone or personal contact. Communication is the key between school and home in the education process and success of your child, so remember that you are always welcome to contact or visit the school anytime.

Memorial Homework Club

Beginning the week of October 3, we will be offering an afterschool homework club based on teacher referral. If you would like your child to take advantage of this program, please contact his/her teacher. It will begin after school at 2:50 and end promptly at 3:20. Your child will be ready to be picked up in front of the school. We hope you can take advantage of this opportunity and look forward to seeing everyone.
