A series of First Teacher parent meetings are offered on Zoom at 10 a.m. on most Mondays. The sessions are opportunities for parents, caregivers and guardians to get information on different parenting topics and young children to hear a story read aloud to them virtually by guest readers.

During the event, participants may type in questions using the chat feature.
