A series of First Teacher parent meetings are offered on Zoom at 10 a.m. on Mondays in August.

This is an opportunity for parents/caregivers/guardians to get information on different parenting topics and young children to hear a story read aloud to them virtually by guest readers.

On Aug. 10, Helen Haller Elementary School Special Education teacher Tiffany Malean and her daughter Audrey, 1, will read stories aloud, and Tiffany will talk about Clallam Mosaic — a local nonprofit serving individuals with special needs and their families.

On Aug. 17, Helen Haller Elementary School librarian/teacher Sheri Kruckeberg will read stories aloud and talk about the importance of reading to young children.

The First Teacher program is a local nonprofit organization provided by Parenting Matters Foundation that offers resources for parents of young children.

Clallam County residents can sign up to receive the First Teacher newsletter at no charge emailing to info@firstteacher.org.
