In our Student Life meeting last Tuesday night, we found that many of you would like an opportunity to sit down with your child and an administrator in order to discuss Fine Arts, Athletics, clubs and other academic programs at Live Oak.  Mrs. Moffatt, Mrs. Still and Mr. Goff would like to schedule fifteen minute meetings with you and your student so that we may discuss possible options for next year. We will try to develop those programs that you want for your child in-line with the school vision.  On Friday, May 14th, we will be available from 9am-11:30am and 1pm-2pm for meetings. Beginning on Monday, May 17th and Wednesday 19th, we will offer times during the school day and early evening to meet with you. Please email office@liveoakclassical.com with convenient days and times to meet with an administrator.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you soon,

Alison Moffatt, Carolyn Still and Casey Goff
