Help us celebrate fall with these delightful Belgian Mums from Johnson Nursery! Purchase now for pick-up on October 4th. Fundraiser sales end September 27th. Proceeds from the sales will be used to further our school's goals, giving us greater opportunities to give our students rewards through our school store and to show our teachers very deserved appreciation.

It's that time of year! Our students have worked hard to earn Dojo points in order to shop at our school store, PAW Mart the week of 9/23-9/27. Ask your student about their DOJO Points and what they plan to buy at PAW Mart!
