Quantum Family Connection
Week of October 21, 2024
Hello Quantum Families,
We are almost halfway towards our goal of $18,000! We have exciting individual prizes, class prizes, and school prizes! If we hit our $18,000 goal we’ll get the dunk tank ready. We earned extra recess on Friday and are working toward a PJ day, and a Recharge day! Our prize drops are twice a week so get those donations in to support Quantum’s PTA!
