Cereal Drive
Please help our Principal's Cabinet leaders reach our school goal of 600 boxes of cereal. Their plan is to collect at least 100 boxes of cereal per grade level to donate to the Parkway Food Pantry. Last year we surpassed our goal and we are hoping to do the same again this year!
Purple Envelope
PTO's Purple Envelope Campaign will be coming home in backpacks soon! As always, we welcome donations all year round by simply going to the PTO website under Contribute to PTO and scanning the QR code! ALL money raised goes directly back to Ross in a variety of ways. So far we have raised just over $1,000... which is great! However, we would love to raise more! Any amount helps!
