  Parent Opportunities

 
To help keep parents/guardians informed of what is happening at The First Tee of Portland we have a few opportunities throughout the year. Every month we will hold a Parent Orientation meeting. This will be an opportunity for parents to learn more about The First Tee of Portland, ask questions, and interact with other parents. We will also be having a Parent/Guardian Life Skills class. This will be an opportunity for parents to experience the classes that their children go through every week and hopefully get a better idea of what the Life Skills Experience is all about. Below you will find the dates, times, and locations for these different opportunities.

Parents
Attending Activities - Parents attending any class or activity may stay to observe their child as long as they do not disturb the activity/class.
