Order Your PTO Calendar Now Available
We are excited to announce the creation of a Gananda PTO 2019 Calendar. Student artwork was submitted by the art teachers at
each of our three buildings, and one winning piece was voted on to represent each of the different grade levels.
The calendars are $10.00 each and can be ordered by downloading the order form.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the calendars will be donated to the art department in each of our three buildings to help supplement their materials & supplies budget for the 2018-2019 school year.
Another portion will be donated to the GoFundMe account that has been established for our middle school art teacher, Mr. Flansburg, who is currently battling lung cancer.
Please visit the PTO webpage for more information.

Gananda Varsity Cheerleading seniors; Abbie, Ceci & Erin (with some help from coaches Jenn & Alexa and their moms) made breakfast at the Ronald McDonald House last weekend. The breakfast was for families who are staying at the house while their child is in the hospital. Coming home to a home-cooked meal after spending hours in the hospital is something the families greatly appreciate. If you would like to sign up to volunteer to make a meal, please visit the Ronald McDonald House Charities website.

Donations to the campaign help provide shelter and meals for the needy, and Christmas toys for millions of children, in addition to numerous other social service programs year-round. If you are interested in helping by volunteering or donating, go the The Salvation Army website for information.
