South Park PTO Spotlight

We are so excited about our fun night at the Board Room for a charcuterie making class coming up. A big thank you to the Mom's Night Out Committee, Lauren Pappas, Amy Elisco, Melissa Glass and Jaclyn Axonovitz, for all their work planning this event! We hope you can join old friends and meet some fellow South Park moms while learning a new skill.

We hope you enjoy the weekend!

Best,

Courtney Cohen and Paula Sklar, PTO Co-Presidents
