Aspire Parent Group Happenings

One of the best parts of working with the Aspire Parent Group is meeting so many wonderful people. We really enjoyed the discussion at the parent meeting last Wednesday evening!

One of our goals is to build a strong, supportive community of families. We are excited about our first Family Social Evening. It will be a coffee & dessert potluck and games night, February 12th, 2011. If you would like to attend, please email us at: aspireparents@gmail.com for details and to RSVP.

Another upcoming event, is our first Homeschool Activity Group get together. This will be Febraury 18th, 2011. This will be a chance for families that are homeschooling to meet once a month for activities; fieldtrips; sharing ideas, information, and resources; workshops; crafts; and for our children to get to know one another. If you would like to join in the fun, please email us at: aspireparents@gmail.com

We invite you to share your ideas, questions, and comments either in the comment section below or by email!

Please join us at our parent information meeting January 19th, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm at the Autism Society, where we will join the Asperger's Parent Discussion Group. Everyone is welcome to attend!
