Welcome to Parsons Memorial Elementary

Dear Parents,
 

All of the children are excited about the upcoming holidays. There are many activities planned as a school and within each individual classroom. It will be a great time for all in the upcoming months.

All of the teachers have been working hard with the students as we enter the winter months We are expecting the students to work hard as we teach them to master objectives from the Common Core Curriculum which is a new curriculum that the State has adopted. This a curriculum which is being used in over 22 States and will allow New York State to share in a rigorous set of objectives. Our teachers have been working to have the Harrison Curriculum be consistent with the Common Core Curriculum and with the curriculum of each school in the Harrison system. We expect that all students in the district will be given the same advantages of this rigorous curriculum regardless of the school attended.
