HOLIDAY GIFTS & STOCK THE LOUNGE FROM OUR PTO
It's time for our annual holiday books & games drive for the teachers classrooms! Each teacher has chosen book or a game to add to their collection and we have put them together on an Amazon list to be purchased.
This year we are also going to surprise teachers by "Stocking the Lounge" with treats to get them through those last few days before Winter break!
Our teachers deserve the best and we wouldn't be able to do these special things without all the support of OUR amazing Gray Hawk Families. Items on both lists will ship directly to the individual PTO coordinator who is organizing, super easy! (Donell Wolf for Books & Games and Sammie Heskett for Stock the Lounge)

Community members who order will be contacted for pickup before Christmas. Please note that it is possible for shipment delays during the holidays, so while Dec 20 is the expected date, we cannot make any guarantees regarding Christmas delivery.
