We'd love our RJ parents' help in providing a sweet treat bar where teachers can pick their own dozen treats to enjoy over the holiday season. Drop off treats by Monday, December 16th to the front office.
Please find the sign-up genius link below to sign up to send in a sweet treat for Donner's Dozen day!
