Children, parents and grandparents, many dressed in pajamas, packed the cafeteria at Broadalbin-Perth Intermediate School Wednesday evening to enjoy a dinner of pizza, hot chocolate, milk and cookies before settling down on carpets in classrooms to listen to bedtime stories read by teacher and parent volunteers. The evening was part of the district’s elementary shared decision-making team’s semiannual Slice and a Story series, which began during the 2012-13 school year.
Broadalbin-Perth is continually looking for ways to strengthen the school/home partnership, and plans to offer more family-friendly programs in the coming years as part of its comprehensive plan for the future.
