	Counselor Notes

Working together is very important for the success of your child. Communication is the key to knowing and understanding. Let's keep the lines of communication open. Your child is of the utmost importance to me. An active parent is the best parent. The doors of Knight-Enloe Elementary are always open to the public. I look forward to serving your child as counselor another year. As activities and events take place at our school, we are always looking for parent volunteers. For our school to be the best it can be, it takes all of us working together.
